Baseball splits on opening day

Statesmen score 6 in 11th to top Griffins

GWYNEDD VALLEY, Pa.—The Hobart baseball team split a pair of games on opening day of the 2025 season at Genuardi Field today. The Statesmen fell 4-0 to Penn State Abington in their opener, but rebounded with an 11-inning 8-2 victory over Gwynedd Mercy.
 
Sophomore Sean Garvin and junior Nate Garrett led the offense. Garvin collected three hits and three RBI, while Garrett had two hits, including a triple. Senior Nicholas Franceschi got the win in Game 2 with three innings of no-hit relief work.

GAME 2
  • Sophomore Trevor Kimball got the start against the Griffins. He went 6 innings, allowing two runs.
  • Gwynedd Mercy manufactured a pair of runs in the third inning. The Griffins got their first run on a bases loaded sacrifice fly and added a second when Sam Junker got picked off first, but Chris Nodeland was able to scramble home before the out was recorded.

  • The Statesmen tied the game in the top of the eighth when Garvin delivered another sac fly, scoring Nate Johnson.
