Bangor, ME - Husson baseball picked up 4 wins over the weekend to begin North Atlantic Conference play. The Eagles picked up Sunday right where they left off Saturday, taking a 6-0 win in game one over U. Maine Farmington and held on for a 4-3 victory in game two.

Pitching was the story for Husson all weekend as Ryan Arsenault (Jr., Portland, ME) paced the Eagles with a complete game, two-hit shutout in game one Sunday. Arsenault only allowed three Beavers on base while collecting five strikeouts and dropping his ERA to 4.05 on the season.

Farmington starter Connor McNeill (So., Portland, ME) allowed 9 hits and 5 earned runs as first baseman Chris Maguire (Jr., Orland, ME) led the Eagles on offense going 2-3 with 3 RBI and 2 runs, including a two-out, two-run double in the 3rd inning to put Husson on the board. In the 5th, Maguire would double once again, scoring Ethan Guerette (Jr., Wales, ME) and scored on the next play, putting the Eagles up 6-0.

In game two, Kyle Leeman (Jr., Bangor, ME) gave a strong outing for Husson going 6 and 2/3 innings, giving up 3 runs, all in the 7th, on 6 hits. Leeman also struckout five lowering his season ERA to 7.36.

The Beavers would not go away easily in the 7th inning of game two scoring all three runs on five of the six hits Leeman would relinquish. With two outs Dan Beatham (Jr., Dexter, ME) would replace Leeman on the mound and strikeout Matt Levine (Jr., Pelham, NH) of Farmington to seal the victory.
