Rapid Recap
Mount Saint Mary traveled north for some non-conference action with Union College. If you're a fan of offense, this was the game for you, as both teams combined for a total of 32 runs, including a season-high 22 from the Mount.

Union managed to score four runs of their own to make it an 11-run first inning with the Mount up 7-4. The home runs would not stop there for the Knights, as Stephen Volk was absolutely slugging in this one, hitting a home run in the 2nd inning, on top of his three doubles on the day.

In the bottom half of the 5th, the Garnet Chargers managed to put together a four-run inning to make things interesting, as they cut the Mount lead to 13-9.
