Sophomore Alexander Wilson (Millburn, N.J.) went 2-for-4 with a double and three RBI, classmate Jack Moses (Belle Mead, N.J.) was 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI and graduate student Brant Savage (Charlton, Mass.) doubled and knocked in a pair of runs to lead the Beavers' 13-hit attack. Graduate student Tanner Santos (Bethany, Conn.) and junior Walter Sadowsky (Morristown, N.J.) also recorded two hits apiece and eight different players drove in a run in support of Clark, who improved to 2-0 by striking out seven and giving up just one hit in the first complete-game shutout of his career.

The Green and White took a 2-0 lead in the top of the third as Savage ripped a double to left to bring home Santos before coming home on a two-out error. Wilson came through with a one-out RBI double to plate Sadowsky in the fourth and an RBI double to right center and a base hit by graduate student Jack Julian (Manchester, Mass.) extended the lead to 5-0 in the sixth. 

The Beavers sent 10 men to the plate while scoring six times in the top of the seventh to put the game away. Sophomore Ryan Liss (Hollywood, Fla.) and Moses recorded back-to-back RBI knocks and Wilson followed with another base hit to bring two more home as the margin swelled to 9-0. Santos singled through the right side to score Wilson and then raced home from second when Savage's fly ball to center was misplayed for an 11-run lead. 

Clark allowed just one hit, a single to graduate student Nick Hubbe (Chappaqua, N.Y.) to lead off the bottom of the second, and retired the next 16 batters before walking sophomore Ethan Chanthompalit (Lowell, Mass.) with one out in the seventh.

Senior Justin Guest (West Windsor, N.J.) went 3-for-3 with two doubles, two RBI and two runs scored, Moses doubled twice and Savage was 2-fo-3 with three runs scored to pace the Beavers. Sophomore Dante D'Avanzo (Ashland, Mass.) matched a Division III record with three sacrifice flies and Finkelstein recorded eight strikeouts and allowed just two hits over 6.0 innings to move to 1-0 on the year with the win. 

Senior Briggs Loveland (Burleson, Texas) singled and scored and sophomore Braeden O'Connell (Boxford, Mass.) knocked in a run for the Lions, who were limited to just four hits in the loss. 

Babson opened the scoring in the top of the third as Guest doubled to left center to bring home graduate student Thomas Parisi (Somers, N.Y.) and Savage raced home on D'Avanzo's sacrifice fly for a 2-0 advantage. Moses doubled to lead off the fourth and later scored on a passed ball, and the Beavers tacked on three more runs in the fifth thanks to a sacrifice fly by D'Avanzo, an RBI ground out by Sadowsky and a double to the gap in right center by Moses that plated Liss to make it 6-0. 

Liss hit an opposite-field double that brought home Savage as part of a three-run sixth inning, and the Green and White added three more runs in the seventh, which included RBI ground outs by both Santos and Liss as well as a bases-loaded walk by Guest for a 12-0 advantage.
