Red Hawks Take Second Game 5-2, Fall in First Contest 9-2

Montclair, NJ - Sophomore righthander AUSTIN MINTON tossed a complete game as Montclair State split its New Jersey Athletic Conference at Rowan University on Saturday. The Red Hawks (14-14, 5-5 NJAC) fell to the Profs (15-13, 4-4 NJAC) in the first contest 9-2 before rebounding for a 5-2 victory.

The Red Hawks answered with a four-run second inning to take their first lead of the afternoon. PHILIP SCOTT led off with a single and KEVIN ALONSO drew a one walk.
