Quincy Offense Pounds Tritons In Sunday Sweep

QUINCY, Ill. – The Quincy University baseball team scored 23 runs and banged out 29 hits in polishing off a Sunday (April 9) sweep of Missouri-St. Louis, 11-8 and 12-2, at QU Stadium.
 
The Hawks (20-11, 9-3 GLVC) took three of four games from the Tritons (10-18, 4-8 GLVC) and are tied with Drury atop the GLVC West standings. Quincy and Drury open a four-game series Friday (April 14) at QU Stadium.
 
On Sunday, the Hawks scored in seven innings over the two games all were crooked numbers.
 
Quincy jumped out to an 11-0 lead in the opener, scoring six runs in the first inning. The first run scored on an error before senior Jack Klages (St. Louis, Mo.) drew a bases-loaded walk to make it 2-0. Junior Matt Hilmes (Carlyle, Ill.) followed with a two-run double and sophomores Nolan Snyder (St. Louis, Mo.) and TJ Tamaccio (Boca Raton, Fla.) added RBIs in the inning to make it 6-0.
 
In the second, senior Jake Walters (St. Louis, Mo.) led off with his 13th homer of the season. With two down Hilmes drove in junior Troy Wehde (St. Charles, Mo.), who walked earlier in the inning.
 
RBI singles by Walters, junior J.C. DeMuri (Manchester, Mo.) and Wehde in the third stretched the lead to 11 runs.
 
QU starter Hunter Haynes (Mexico, Mo.) cruised through the first four innings, scattering four hits. In the fifth, the Tritons touched him up for six runs, including two-run hits by Nick Ulrey and Jarrett O'Brien.
 
UMSL came all the way back from a nine-run deficit on Saturday only to see the Hawks walk off with a win in the ninth. On Sunday, they added two more runs in the seventh, but freshman William Sanchez (Miami, Fla.) shut the door for his first save of the season.
 
Haynes (5-1) earned the win, allowing six runs on eight hits with three walks and seven strikeouts. Zach Lindsey (2-2) took the loss for the Tritons, allowing 11 runs – seven earned – in 2 2/3 innings.
 
Walters led the offense, going 3-for-3 with a homer, a hit-by-pitch, three runs and two RBI. Hilmes, DeMuri and Wehde had two hits apiece.
 
In Game 2, the Hawks scored four in the first inning and never looked back. Walters, DeMuri, Klages and Snyder had RBIs in the inning.
 
Senior Dominic Miles (Quincy, Ill.) hit a one-out solo homer in the second inning and Wehde added a two-run blast off the scoreboard later in the frame to give the Hawks a 7-1 lead.
 
UMSL picked up another run in the fourth, but otherwise, senior starter Mark Niebrugge (Effingham, Ill.) cruised in a complete game effort, striking out nine.
 
Quincy tacked on two runs in the fourth, getting a run on an RBI single by Wehde and another on a run-scoring double play. Snyder blasted a two-run home run in the seventh and Miles' RBI single into the corner ended the game by run rule.
 
Niebrugge (4-2) gave up just one earned run in picking up the win. He scattered eight hits and walked only one. Kevin Smith (3-2) took the loss, allowing nine runs (six earned) in 4 1/3 innings.
 
Miles went 3-for-4 with a homer, a walk, three runs and two RBI while Wehde was 3-for-3 with a homer, a walk, two runs and three RBI. DeMuri and Hilmes each had two hits.
 
The Hawks and Panthers will square off on Friday (April 14) at noon at QU Stadium in a doubleheader that starts a four-game series.
