Winchester, VA - The Villa Julie College baseball team traveled to Virginia to take on non-conference opponent Shenandoah University. The Mustangs dropped both games, 4-3 and 8-4.

In game 1, the Mustangs could only muster 3 runs on 6 hits in a well pitched game on both sides. Mustang starter, Junior Ryan Baione, pitched 5 1/3 innings giving up 3 earned runs. However, the Hornets scored one in the bottom of the 7th to win the game in their last at bat, which makes the Mustangs 1-7 on the season in 1 run games. Senior Jimmy Smith was 2-3 with 2 doubles and 2 RBI's.

Game 2 opened up with the Mustangs scoring 3 in the first inning thanks to a double by Junior Wade Keenan, and a 2 run single by Baione. It looked as if the Mustangs offense, which is averaging more than 10 runs a game, had woken up. We were mistaken as the offense only mustered 2 more hits for the rest of the game. Keenan went 2-3 with a double and an RBI, with Senior Buddy Breidenbaugh going 2-2 with 2 doubles.

The Mustangs are back in action for Senior Day at home on Tuesday at 6 pm. The Mustangs will be honoring their 6 seniors: Nick Deaner, Jimmy Smith, Phil Kraska, John Jilek, Buddy Breidenbaugh, and Alex Laddbush.
