Bates – Jack Potash (Stratford, Conn.) was outstanding out of the bullpen on Sunday, going seven shutout innings as Bates prevailed 4-2 over Bard in 15 innings. The senior struck out four and allowed just three hits while throwing 85 pitches. Potash worked around a walk and a hit-by-pitch to secure the win with a scoreless bottom of the 15th, the longest game for the Bobcats innings-wise since Bates beat Western Connecticut State 1-0 in 16 innings in 2006.

Bowdoin – The Polar Bears begin a spring break trip on Monday with two games versus Loras.

Trailing 7-4 with two outs in the ninth, Schroeder belted a game-tying three-run round-tripper to level the score at 7-7. Andrew Gatland (Western Springs, Ill.) earned the save in Middlebury's 4-3 home opener versus Keene State on Friday. The Panther entered the game in the top of the eighth with Middlebury leading by a run.
