FLEMINGTON, N.J. – Graduate infielder Max Matteucci totaled four extra-base hits and senior outfielder Jackson Rusiecki reached base five times as the RIT baseball team swept a Saturday doubleheader at TCNJ, taking Game 1 by a 3-2 score before closing out the afternoon with a 7-2 victory.

  • Graduate infielder Max Matteucci opened the fourth inning with a double before scoring on a single by senior catcher Roberto Reade to extend the Tigers' lead to 2-0.

  • Senior pitcher Liam Miller tossed three scoreless innings to start the game, allowing one hit and striking out two before the bullpen held TCNJ to a single run over the final six frames.
