Eagles Soar Past Bison for Season Sweep

Fredericksburg, VA.-  The Bison dropped their third game in two days against the University of Mary Washington today, 16-0.  This game takes Gallaudet's season record to 0-10 in the CAC and 2-12-1 overall.

A day after Gallaudet University came the closest it's ever been to breaking the fifteen year conference losing streak, against the University of Mary Washington at home, the Bison turned in another tough performance in losing 16 - 0 to the Eagles. The Eagles threw a near no-hitter as Mary Washington's Dan Murdoch threw 6 hitless innings and his relief Parker Talbert closed the game with an almost flawless inning, giving up a two out single to Gallaudet freshman Jeremy Shepps to end the no-hitter.

Zane Noschese took the mound for the Bison, scuffling through 2.2 innings and giving up 6 earned runs before finally coming out for Johnny Bingham in the bottom of the 3rd. Errors marred Noschese's outing, as the Gallaudet defense committed several crucial errors that allowed Mary Washington to pad their lead. Bingham would subsequently handcuff the Eagles offense, giving up no earned runs in his 2.2 inning stint.

The Bison are back in action on Wednesday when they travel to Wesley College for a single game.  First pitch is slated for 3:30pm.
