Medaille Sports

The Medaille College baseball team played host to Fredonia State for a non-conference double dip this afternoon at McCarthy Park.  The visiting Blue Devils came away with the sweep winning game one (16-5) and outlasting the Mavs in the nightcap (4-1).  In the opener the Mavs rceceived a (2 for 2) effort at the plate from sophomore Mike Kogut (Syracuse, NY/Bishop Ludden) who also drove in two runs.  Junior Brandon Lumadue (Cheektowaga, NY/West Seneca East)(pictured) had a great day at the plate as he went (2 for 4) with a double, a run scored, while driving in a run.  The second game would see Lumadue continue his hot hitting as he went (2 for 3) while crossing the plate one more time. While junior Steve Kanutsu (Williamsville, NY/Williamsville East) went (1 for 2) with the lone rbi of the game. Freshman Pat Mancuso (Batavia, NY/Notre Dame)  came out of the bullpen to fan three Fredonia batters while allowing only one hit.  The losses drop Medaille to (7-19) on the year as they will host Franciscan University on Saturday at 1:00pm in a game that will have the McCarthy Park Dedication Ceremony beginning at noon.
