Etown Splits Conference Doubleheader with Albright, Blue Jays Win First Game 14-3, Fall in Second 8-5

READING, Pa. --- Elizabethtown split a Commonwealth Conference doubleheader with Albright on the road Saturday, pounding the Lions 14-3 in the first game and falling to Albright 8-5 in the second.

Chris Turtell (Lindenhurst, NY/Lindenhurst), Brad Duppstadt (Mechanicsburg, PA/Cumberland Valley) and Seth Guida (Reading, PA/Exeter) all pounded out home runs for Etown in the first game. Turtell's was a solo shot in the first inning, Duppstadt followed with a two RBI homer in the first, and Guida smacked his two RBI homer in the third inning.

Ryan Bowe (Quarryville, PA/Solanco) went the full seven innings in the first game, allowing just four hits and three runs while striking out three to improve to 2-2 overall.

Turtell and Duppstadt each homered again in the second game, with Duppstadt's blast coming in the fifth inning and Turtell's happening in the sixth, but they were not enough to erase the seven run deficit the Blue Jays dug for themselves by the third inning.

Elizabethtown returns to action hosting Johns Hopkins for a 1:30 p.m. game Sunday, March 24.
