CU ranks fifth in the MEC in doubles with 29. Individually, junior outfielder
Korbin Bostic is tied for third in the conference with seven doubles—four of which came this weekend. Senior outfielder
Demetri Jamison is tied for fourth in the conference in doubles with six. The Mountain Lions are ahead of last year's doubles pace as they didn't hit their 30
th double of the season until the 24

FINDING A GROOVE
Graduate pitcher
Zach Powell and sophomore pitcher
Jake Robinson are tied for the MEC lead in wins this season with three each. Powell has won his last three starts. Even though Powell's ERA is 6.04 for the season, his last three starts have produced an ERA of 3.44 (six runs in 15.2 innings). And he hasn't given up more than three runs in his last four starts. Meanwhile, Robinson earned his first win in a start this year after his first two victories came in relief appearances. The Raleigh, North Carolina native racked up seven strikeouts versus Fairmont State—the second most in his career—while tossing six shutout innings. And junior pitcher
Logan Darrow bounced back with three scoreless innings versus Frostburg State Friday to earn his first win at CU.
LAUNCHING PAD
UVa.-Wise's Stallard Field is known as a hitter's park and that was evident last year as Concord tied the program record for single-game home runs with five long balls. Junior outfielder
Dawson Gragg homered last year in CU's 13-5 victory at UVa.-Wise.
Daniel Layne and
Zack Saryeldin also homered in the win. The Mountain Lions piled up 12 runs in an early March win over the Cavaliers at Anderson Field with senior utility
MJ Hunter homering in the home victory. Hunter hit his first home run of the season versus Fairmont State Saturday afternoon. In addition to the five home runs at UVa.-Wise last year, Concord added five doubles with senior infielder
Brendan Brady, Gragg and Jamison each recording a two-base hit.
