Delaware Valley College 6, Ursinus College 5

COLLEGEVILLE (PA) - Mike Isgro's RBI double in the top of the ninth inning proved to be the difference as Delaware Valley College came from behind to defeat host Ursinus College, 6-5, in a non-conference game.

The game was the sixth in the last four days for the Aggies, who improved to 23-13 overall. They will now prepare for this weekend's crucial three-game series with Freedom Conference newcomer Arcadia University (Friday's single game at Arcadia, Saturday's doubleheader at Delaware Valley) to end the regular season. Delaware Valley is 7-8 and tied with two others for the fourth and final playoff spot in the conference.

The Aggies trailed 5-3 before tying the game with two runs in the eighth. Then in the ninth, Zach Jakubowski opened the stanza with a walk but was thrown out at second on fielder's choice as Kevin Weingart tried to bunt him over into scoring position. With Weingart on first, Isgro notched his seventh double of the season, a shot into the right-center field gap to bring home Weingart for the eventual game winner. The sophomore outfielder/pitcher went 2-for-5 and knocked two runs in, giving him 23 on the year (second on the team).

Jakubowski also had a multiple-hit game as he went 2-for-3 to raise his batting average to .473. The senior third baseman also became just the fourth player in school history to reach the 60-hit plateau for a season. Justin Lucas picked up his first win of the year.
