The Penn State DuBois baseball team hosted Fayette last night in a PSUAC matchup that would also be a night of recognition. DuBois not only recognized last years USCAA World Series Championship Team, but also the seniors on the team that will be graduating this year.
Amidst all of the celebrations though, DuBois still had to get their work done on the field. With a quick 2 runs in the bottom of the 1st inning thanks to the bat of Tyler Yough, DuBois would never give up the lead. Fayette would make a good run as starting pitcher Taylor Boland would get into a jam in the top of the 7th, but Boland and his teammates would all come together to make sure they would keep the lead.
In the end DuBois would come out on top, 8-5. Boland would get his 6 win on the year as he went 6 and 1/3rds innings with 8 strikeouts. Colby Bodtorf and Daniel Stauffer would finish off the game pitching the final 2 and 2/3rds innings with 5 strikeouts between them.
Senior, Thayne Morgan would have 2 steals that would break the DuBois all time stolen bases record with 84 career steals. The previous record was held by now Assistant Coach with DuBois, Garrett Brown.
Morgan would also have 3 RBI's on the game, and both Brandon Sicheri and Bodtorf would each hit for a double in the win.
