Peter Kalinksi (Washington, D.C./Saint John's College) then recorded a fielder's choice to send Horvat home for the first run of the afternoon. Scout Zaas's (Powell, Ohio/Wellington School) RBI single scored Rush to give W&J a 2-0 lead after the top of the first. 

Bethany was able to put a run on the board in the bottom of the first. Roman Samson (Tampa, Fla./Berkley Prep) led off the second inning with his first home run of the season to left center field to make it 3-1 Presidents. 

W&J effectively put the game away in the top of the third inning. The Presidents recorded nine runs on nine hits in the inning. Zaas drilled a three-run home run, his third homer of the season, during the outburst.
