The Cortland Red Dragon\u2019s baseball team is one of the hottest teams in all of Division 3, as they extend their winning streak to 13 games in a row. The trip down to Pennsylvania for a Sunday doubleheader back on April 14 showcased just how dominant they have been on this run, outscoring the Rosemont Ravens 42-10 in just the two games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first game was far from close, as the Ravens failed to put up a single run in the matchup, ultimately getting blown out 22-0. Cortland started this scoring barrage right away, as they scored 13 of their 22 runs in the first inning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second game had some more excitement than the first game but still was a double-digit win for the Red Dragons as they won 20-10. A big problem Rosemont had throughout these two games was their abundance of errors, as they matched their run total in the two games with errors of 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Luis Misla, Greg Mays, and Nick Jessen each recorded over 4 strikeouts across the two games, shutting down any possibility of the Ravens making a comeback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe team overall has been producing,\u201d says Nick Jessen, a junior who pitches for the team, \u201cEvery player has been doing their job when it presents itself\u2026 Overall the team is feeling really good and we\u2019re having fun.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The last time the Red Dragons lost a game was back on March 16 during their west coast road trip where they were defeated by the Chapman Panthers 10-3. It has now been over a month of winning for Cortland, a streak they look to continue into this weekend as they take on SUNYAC rival Oswego State Lakers in a 3-game series starting with a doubleheader on Saturday, April 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOur starting pitchers have been showing out and our bullpen guys finish the job,\u201d Jessen went on to say, \u201cWe are ready to compete and to keep playing like we\u2019ve been playing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the SUNYAC\u2019s coming up in less than a month, the Red Dragons are undefeated in conference play, an impressive feat for being in solid company with the other teams. If they can keep up their winning ways, they will clinch the first seed and be in prime position to make a run for the conference title this May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
