Mounties pull off upset
PITTSBURGH - Sixth seed Mount Aloysius upset second seed Penn State-Behrend, 3-1, to advance to the AMCC Championship baseball game.
The Mounties jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning. Jacob Stumpf's sacrifice fly brought in Matt Cornetti for the game's opening run. Pat Gully singled to bring in Aaron Kovach and Troy Nemeth for the remaining Mountie runs.
Penn State-Behrend scored their lone run in the bottom of the first inning when Ryan Kragnes reached base on an error, and subsequently scored off a Matt Bitner double.
The game became a pitcher's dual from that point on, with Mount Aloysius' Paul Rogerson gaining the upper hand.
Rogerson pitched a complete game, giving up six hits and striking out five. Penn State-Behrend's only run was unearned.
Nemeth went 2-for-4, while Cornetti, Gully, and Cory Dick each had a hit.
Mount Aloysius will face top seed La Roche College in the championship game at 10 a.m. today.
The Mounties become the first Mount Aloysius baseball team to advance to an AMCC championship game, since joining the conference eight years ago.
