SYRACUSE, N.Y. – The College of Saint Rose snapped a four-game skid in impressive fashion with today's 11-2
Northeast-10 Conference triumph at #10 Le Moyne.

Junior left-hander
Greg Musk surrendered just a pair of runs on four hits throughout 8.0 innings of work to go to 4-2 this spring. He was backed by an 11-hit barrage as the Golden Knights (16-20/9-12 NE10) rebounded from a 1-0 deficit by scoring three runs in the fifth and four more in the sixth. They then tacked on another in the seventh and crossed home plate three more times in the eighth.

"We responded very well after a tough weekend by defeating a great team. We swung the bats, pitched and played great defense. We are a very tough team to beat when we are focused," said head coach
Wayne Jones.
