In the opener, Gwynedd limited Marywod to five hits on the day and snagged three runs in the bottom of the sixth to secure the win. Marywood led 4-2 through three innings played but GMU tied it up in the bottom of the fourth and then held Marywood off the board the rest of the way.

In game two, Justin Haddix (2-1) was handed his first loss of the year despite five strikeouts. Gwynedd's Frank Chubb fanned seven Marywood batters in the win.  Marywood again had an early lead (2-1) after two innings played but was held scoreless the rest of the way.  The host Griffins used a four-run fourth to break open the tight game. 

Daniel Hull was 2-for-3 with two RBI in the loss for Marywood and Schlichtig also went 2-for-3.

Marywood will be back in action 10 days from now after Easter break when the Pacers travel to Williamsport to take on Penn College of Technology at 3:00 pm in a non-conference single game.
