NEW LONDON, CONN. -- Babson College had solid pitching performances from sophomore Andrew Aizenstadt in the opener and senior captain Jeff Wojnar in the nightcap as the Beavers swept Coast Guard 6-1 and 10-3 in a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) opening doubleheader for both teams.

In the opener, Aizenstadt (2-0) went the distance as he pitched seven innings and allowed six hits and one earned run while walking two and striking out six.

Babson blew open a 2-0 game with three runs in the sixth with freshman Stephen Albano and junior Peter O'Toole delivering back-to-back RBI singles in the inning. O'Toole, sophomore Billy Besinger and freshman Travis Jonasson each had two hits for Babson in the opener.

In the second game, Wojnar (1-0) allowed a run and two hits in the first before he retired 20 of the next 21 batters he faced before leaving after seven solid innings. Wojnar allowed just the two first inning hits while not walking a batter and striking out eight.

O'Toole was 4-for-6 with a double, a homer and two RBI's in game two while Besinger was 3-for-6 with two RBIs and three runs scored.
