WAYNESBURG, Pa.--The Westminster College baseball team secured a Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) split Wednesday afternoon at Waynesburg University, winning game one 9-7 in 10 innings before falling in game two 7-2.

Game 1: Westminster 9, Waynesburg 7 (10 inn.)
Trailing 2-0 after the first inning, the Titans struck for six runs in the fourth. Senior center fielder Brandon Cooper (Oakdale, Pa. | West Allegheny) drove in a first run of the frame after being hit by a pitch with the bases loaded. Sophomore third baseman Braeden Campbell (Glenshaw, Pa. | Shaler) drew a bases loaded walk that scored graduate student right fielder Seth Schrader (Fredonia, N.Y. | Fredonia). Junior catcher Chase Tomko (Hermitage, Pa. | West Middlesex) scored senior designed hitter Frankie Manios (Warren, Ohio | Howland) with a sacrifice fly before junior second baseman Donald Shimko (Greensburg, Pa. | Greater Latrobe) drove in a pair of runs with a double. Junior left fielder Matthew Randza (Beaver Falls, Pa. | Blackhawk) drove in Shimko and Campbell with a two-run double.

Waynesburg scored single runs in the seventh and eight to cut the deficit to 6-5. Bryce Bedilion hit a two-out solo home run in the bottom of the ninth to force extra innings.

Campbell singled up the middle in the top of the 10th to score Manios, who led off the inning with a single, and Cooper, who reached on a bunt single. 

With one out Shimko was intentionally walked to load the bases. Junior shortstop Logan Murgenovich (Aliquippa, Pa. | Central Valley) drove in the eventual game-winning run after drawing a walk. 

Waynesburg picked up one run in the bottom of the 10th. 

Junior Timothy Lewis (West Middlesex, Pa. | Wilmington) improved to 2-1 on the season with the win. He allowed two runs (2 earned) off two hits while walking one and fanning one in 2.0 innings of relief. 

Eight players combined for eight hits in the win. Randza, Schrader and Shimko had doubles. Manios went 1-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored. 

Game 2: Waynesburg 7, Westminster 2
Waynesburg got things going early, scoring three runs in the bottom of the first. Shimko scored on an error in the third and Murgenovich doubled in Shimko after his one-out double in the fifth to cut the deficit to 3-2. The Jackets scored four runs on four hits in the bottom of the fifth to take a 7-2 lead. Gavin Pratt's two-run home run keyed the four-run frame. 

Murgenovich finished 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI.

Sophomore starter Ryan Gibbons (Ellwood City, Pa. | Lincoln) took the game two loss, allowing seven runs (5 earned) on eight hits with three walks and four strikeouts in 5.0 innings.
