Box Score MARIETTA, Ohio -- DJ Michalski had four hits and drove in a career-high six runs to highlight Washington & Jefferson's come-from-behind 12-10 victory (10 innings) over 11th-ranked Marietta Thursday afternoon at Don Schaly Stadium.  W&J defeated Marietta for the second consecutive regular season after losing the first 18 games in series history. 

The Presidents (7-7) scored three times in the eighth inning to tie the game and overcame Marietta's threat in the bottom of the eighth when the Pioneers (11-5) had runners on second and third with no outs.  Brian O'Neill worked out of the jam and Tim Mulvey earned the win with a scoreless ninth inning.  Kyle McLain pitched the bottom of the 10th for his fifth save. 

Derek McIlvane, who had four hits (two doubles) and scored four runs, doubled to lead off the 10th and scored on Michalski's fourth single for the eventual game-winning run.  McLain added a RBI single for the two-run advantage. 

W&J played from behind for nearly the entire game after taking a 1-0 lead in the first on a Staniscia sacrfice fly which scored McIlvane.  Marietta scored four times in the second, but Kyle Smith blasted a three-run homer in the fourth to tie the contest. 

Last year, W&J defeated then third-ranked Marietta 11-10 during the regular season at Ross Memorial Park in Washington, rallying back from a nine-run deficit.  Marietta evened the score with a 6-2 elimination-game victory in the NCAA Mideast Regional.

Marietta built the lead back up to 9-5 in the fifth inning; however, Michalski's two-run single in the sixth cut the lead in half.  After the Pioneers answered with a run in the seventh, another two-run, bases-loaded single by Michalski and Staniscia's RBI groundout tied the game. 

After the first two runners reached base in the eighth for Marietta, O'Neill earned the first out on a groundout to second base.  The second out was recorded when Matt Fry took another ground ball at second base and fired home to Ronny Peirish, who tagged out the runner.  O'Neill's strikeout miraculously ended the threat. 

In the bottom of the ninth, Peirish notched the final out for the Presidents after nailing a runner trying to steal second base. 

McLain also finished with three hits for W&J and the Presidents stole six bases overall.
