BRADENTON, FL—Senior Brian Martin went 6-7 with four runs batted in to lead Bloomsburg University to a twinbill sweep of Edinboro in Florida Monday. The Huskies won game one, 17-10 and came back with a 7-3 win in game two.

In the opener the Huskies trailed 7-2 heading into the home half of the fourth when they scored nine times to take the lead for good. Jim Coombe (Bloomsburg/Danville) had a sacrifice fly RBI to score the first run for Bloomsburg. Later Brian Zorger (Altoona/Altoona) had a run scoring single with Martin getting a two-run single. After the Fightin Scots changed pitchers, Joe Pesci (Levittown/Pennsbury) greeting Travis Repman with a two-run double to give the Huskies an 8-7 lead. Jeremy Arner (Alburtis/Emmaus) was then hit by a pitch and Nick Stachokus (Honesdale/Honesdale) was walked to load the bases. Mark Reiter (Three Birdges, NJ/Hunterdon Central) then lined a three-run double giving the Huskies the lead for good at 11-7. The Huskies later added three runs in both the fifth and sixth innings to get the win.

Jim Danforth (Corning, NY/Corning East) picked up the win in relief of Charlie Reed (Berwick/Berwick) in game one.
