Game 1
Albright scored the final two runs to take game one of a Commonwealth Conference doubleheader from Lebanon Valley by a 4-2 decision on Sunday afternoon.

After Michael Puglisi's two-out, RBI single to left field drove in Zach Smith to tie the score at 2-2 in the top of the sixth inning, Albright's Max Dundore had a clutch hit of his own in the bottom of the frame; a two-out, two-run home run to left-center field that gave the Lions a 4-2 lead they wouldn't relinquish.

The home team (10-9-1, 6-7 CC) got on the board quickly, plating a run in the bottom of the first but the Flying Dutchmen (8-13, 3-8 CC) drew even in the top of the third when Zach Smith doubled to right center and drove in Phill Dohner with two outs.

After reaching base on an error and swiping second base, Dundore scored his first run of the day, an unearned tally, in the bottom of the fourth when Daniel Louviaux singled down the left field line.

Game 2
Evan High's three-run, walk-off home run in the bottom of the seventh inning spoiled Lebanon Valley's game two comeback bid and earned Albright the Commonwealth doubleheader sweep of the Flying Dutchmen by an 8-6 margin in the nightcap on Sunday afternoon.

High's bomb over the left field fence came with one out following a Dylan Boll triple and Max Dundore walk. LVC (8-14, 3-9 CC) had just erased a 5-3 deficit in the top of the sixth thanks to a Jonathan Harned sacrifice fly that scored Glenn Dietrich and Zach Smith's clutch, two out single up the middle that drove in Matthew Smarkanic and Phill Dohner.

The Dutchmen struck first with a pair of first inning runs when Zac Edwards' double drove in Dohner and Michael Puglisi's sac fly plated Edwards four at-bats later.

The Lions (11-9-1, 7-7 CC) got one back in the bottom of the first but Lebanon Valley pushed its advantage back to two when Devin Dellinger singled to left center and pushed Edwards across for the second time in the top of the third.

A lead-off triple enabled Albright to cut the deficit to 3-2 in the bottom of the frame before the home team pulled ahead for the first time in the fourth. The Lions plated a pair with two down, including one of the unearned variety to claim the 4-3 advantage.

But the outcome wasn't decided until High's swing in the final stanza.

On the Mound
- Jason Barthold (2-2) turned in a solid performance in his first start in six days. He threw a complete game in the opener and allowed three earned runs on seven hits. He walked none and struck out five.
- Jared Neiheiser (4-2) earned the win for Albright in game one while Trey Eberly picked up his third save of the season. Neiheiser gave up two runs on seven hits and a walk in 6.0 innings of work. Eberly struck out the side in the top of the seventh to preserve the Lions' victory.
- Corey Sell got the start for Lebanon Valley in the nightcap, Patrick Reagan (0-1) took the loss, and Brett Fundell made just his second appearance on the mound this spring.
- The Lions used five arms in the finale with Mat Costa getting the start and Aaron Forker (2-0) getting the win.

At the Plate
- Zach Smith was 3-for-3 with an RBI double and a run scored in the first game. Phill Dohner finished 2-for-4 with two singles in the opener.
- Max Dundore went 2-for-3 for Albright in game one with a two-run home run and two runs scored.
- Smith and Zac Edwards each went 2-for-3 in the finale with Smith driving in two and Edwards doubling and scoring twice. Devin Dellinger and Andrew Woolley also had two hits apiece.
- Dylan Boll was 2-for-4 for the Lions in game two with a triple and a double. Evan High finished 2-for-3 with a homer, three RBI, and two runs scored.

Around the Diamond
- Albright's Max Dundore swiped four bags on the day; two in each contest. Zac Edwards and Phill Dohner stole one base each for the Dutchmen while each team had one runner caught stealing across both games.
- The squads committed two errors apiece on the day; one in each game for LVC and two in the nightcap for the Lions.

Playoff Picture
LVC has some work to do if it is to earn a spot in this spring's Commonwealth Conference's postseason tournament. The Dutchmen are currently seventh in the league standings with a 3-9 CC record. Albright and Messiah share the fourth spot with identical 7-7 league records.

Next Up
The Dutchmen travel to Alvernia for a single Commonwealth contest tomorrow afternoon. The Crusaders took two from LVC at McGill Field on Saturday afternoon.
