After a rough couple games, the Dons needed a bounce back win and they got one Monday against Las Lomas.

Ethan Rowland (jr) started on the mound for the Dons.  After cruising through the 1^st inning, Las Lomas started to get to Ethan in the 2^nd, putting their first four runners on and plating 1.  With second and third and 1 out, Ethan struck out the next batter and then induced the following batter to ground out, killing a potential Las Lomas big inning and showing the resilience Ethan has all year.

The Dons got their scoring going in the 3^rd, when Miles Bergman (jr) led off the inning with sharp single to center.  Bergman stole second and advanced to 3^rd on Kyle White’s (jr) single.  Sam Heyman (sr) came up and ripped a double into the left field corner scoring both Bergman and White. 

After Las Lomas took a 3-2 lead in the top of the 4^th, the Dons came back to tie it in the bottom of the inning.  Luke Souza (jr) led the inning off with a single and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Connor McPhail (jr) before scoring on a smoked double off the bat of Miles Bergman to tie the game.

The score remained tied 3-3 until the bottom of the 6^th.  Will Berrien (jr) drew a hard-earned walk, stole second and advanced to 3^rd on a balk.  Connor McPhail walked, and with one out, Jack Cusumano (jr) laid down a well-executed safety squeeze bunt to bring in Berrien and put the Dons up 4-3.  The Dons added two more insurance runs in the inning.  They were only insurance runs, as Miles Bergman, who came in to relieve Connor McPhail who pitched 2 hitless inning, pitched a hitless 7^th of his own to secure the 6-3 victory.
