THE GAMES AT A GLANCE
IUP baseball (0-4, 0-0 PSAC West) returns from a two-week break with a slightly different schedule as the Crimson Hawks head to East Stroudsburg for a doubleheader Monday afternoon. First pitch of the 7/9 doubleheader is noon. These games were originally part of the East Stroudsburg Invitational Saturday and Sunday, which also included Jefferson. However, weather forced changes to the schedule. The Crimson Hawks were last in action February 14-15 in Hickory, North Carolina with four losses to Lenoir-Rhyne. The Warriors have won eight straight games, including four over Saint Rose and Jefferson last weekend at Creekview Park.
NOTES
>>
Chris Eisel had a triple, home run, and knocked in a team-best five runs in four games at Lenoir-Rhyne. He also scored four of IUP's 13 runs on the weekend.
>> Eisel and
Markus Cestra each bring four-game reached base streaks into the doubleheader at East Stroudsburg.
>>
Nick DiAndreth and
Nick Hess each had a team-high five hits against Lenoir-Rhyne.
>> Despite conference affiliation, IUP and East Stroudsburg don't often play with seven games spread out over three meetings in the last decade.
>> The Crimson Hawks have dropped five straight to ESU, the last win coming in March 2014 with 10-2 victory in Aberdeen, Maryland.
