BRISTOL, R.I. — The No. 1 nationally ranked Endicott baseball team split a doubleheader at Roger Williams, 4-3 and 8-15, in Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) doubleheader action from Paulino Field on Saturday afternoon.


GAME ONE: Endicott 4, Roger Williams 3

WP (7-0): Jordan Gottesman (Acton, Mass.) — 6.2 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 7 K
LP (4-1): Louie Mosca (Old Tappan, N.J.) — 5.0 IP, 3 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 3 BB, 3 K
SV (2): Evan Scully (Maynard, Mass.) — 1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K

The Gulls jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the top of the first, highlighted by a Robbie Wladkowski (Norwood, Mass.) RBI double to right-center field and a Joey Frammartino (North Reading, Mass.) RBI single to right field. Dylan Pacheco (Dartmouth, Mass.)Danny MacDougall (Taunton, Mass.), and Wladkowski each scored in the inning.

In the bottom of the third, the Hawks got a pair on the board, but the Gulls responded with an insurance run in the top of the fifth via a Nicolas Notarangelo (Taunton, Mass.) RBI double, which pushed the Blue and Green's lead back to two (4-2).

Gottesman provided another strong outing for Endicott, as he limited the Roger Williams lineup to just three runs over his 6.2 innings of work. He fanned seven hitters in the outing and earned his team-leading seventh win for the Gulls.

The tandem of Kyan Bagshaw (Amherst, N.H.) (0.2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 2K) and Evan Scully (Maynard Mass.) (SV, 1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K) combined to close out the final 2.1 innings for the Blue and Green, locking down the 4-3 victory (13th consecutive).


GAME TWO: Endicott 8, Roger Williams 15

WP (2-0): Nick Gleason (Northboro, Mass.) — 4.0 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 0 BB, 3 K
LP (2-1): Brady Stuart (Hudson, Mass.) — 1.0 IP, 3 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 0 BB, 1 K

Endicott grabbed hold of another early lead thanks to a five-run first inning. Brendan O'Neil (Ponte Vedra, Fla.) sent a single through the right side of the infield to drive in Pacheco for the first run of the game. 

Notarangelo scored in the next at-bat, as Wladkowski plated him with a ground ball to shortstop.

Later in the inning, TJ Liponis (Scarborough, Maine) and Brenden Walsh (Reading, Mass.) each drove in runs with RBI singles to cap Endicott's early offensive highlights.

Roger Williams responded with eight runs in the following two innings, taking hold of an 8-5 advantage.

The program's all-time home run leader Notarangelo added to his career total with a solo blast in the top of the third, cutting the deficit to just two. However, the Hawks held on to their lead for the remainder of the contest, handing the Gulls their first loss in 14 games.
