Sophomore Derek Kasperzyk led off the top of the fifth with his first hit of the season, a single through the left side of the infield.
Senior Ben Gibson would step to the plate next and drive one over the left-center field wall and bring the score to 10-3.. The home run was his team-leading fifth of the year and increased his RBI total into double figures with 11.
Junior Liam Scafariello sent a two-out solo blast to right-center field in the top of the 6th inning to make it a 10-4 game Scafariello now has three homers on the campaign and continues to lead the team in runs batted in with 17.
