Southern moves to 16-0

NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The No. 5 nationally ranked Southern Connecticut State University baseball team made it 16 consecutive wins today with a 3-0 triumph over Saint Rose. The win ties the program-record for most consecutive wins. Chris Zbin (Colchester, Conn.) received the victory going seven innings and giving up no runs on one hit and striking out eight. Ryan Yerina (Trumbull, Conn.) picked up the save going two innings and not allowing a run or a hit.

The offense only saw one hit in the game from Ryan Geffert (Plymouth, Pa.) back in the first inning which led to the first run. With the help on four errors by Saint Rose, the Owls were able to put two more runs up on the board and never looked back. Senior, Nick DeProspo (Worcester, Mass.) helped the team out by way of a hit-by-pitch which eventually led to the first run of the game.
