SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - Wheaton College baseball sophomore Dan Gusovsky (Andover, Mass./Andover) became just the fourth player in program history to record seven RBI, as his 4-for-5 performance led the Lyons to a 12-3 victory at Springfield College in a New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) game at Berry-Allen Field.

Receiving national votes in this week's D3baseball.com poll, Wheaton raised its overall record to 14-6 and league mark to 8-5.  Trailing Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) at 8-4 and Babson College at 9-5, the Lyons are vying for their 12th NEWMAC regular season title.  Springfield fell to 8-12 and 2-8 with the loss.

Gusovsky joined junior teammate Dan Haugh (Andover, Mass./Saint John's Prep) and two others on the short list of players who have recorded at least seven RBI.  Gusovsky's seven runs driven in are two shy of the 12-year-old program mark.  Haugh also had a big day, going 3-for-5 with three RBI and a trio of runs.

Senior Sean Munley (Ewing, N.J./The Hun School of Princeton) went 3-for-5 with two runs and an RBI, while classmate Tad Skelley (Wolfeboro, N.H./Holderness School), sophomore Eric Jensen (Gorham, N.H./Gorham) and freshman Mike Bisceglia (New Boston, N.H./Goffstown) scored two runs each, with Skelley also drawing three walks.  Senior Eric Laliberte (Nashua, N.H./Bishop Guertin) had a pair of walks during Wheaton's 15-hit barrage.

Junior righty Nolan Corr (Somersworth, N.H./Saint Thomas Aquinas) collected his third straight win of the season, allowing just one earned run with one strikeout and two walks over seven innings.  He also gave up 10 hits.

Freshman James Christensen (East Longmeadow, Mass./East Longmeadow) took the loss, surrendering five runs on five hits with three strikeouts and two walks in 2.2 innings.  Offensively, Springfield racked up 12 hits, as four different players had multi-hit showings.

Gusovsky had a hand in four of Wheaton's first five runs, as the Lyons took a quick 5-0 advantage midway through the third inning.  Gusovsky singled home Haugh in the second before clearing the bases with double to right center the following frame.

After the hosts made the score 5-1 after three, Wheaton responded with seven unanswered runs through the seventh to put the game out of reach.  Gusovsky doubled home a pair in the fifth and singled in a run during his team's four-run sixth.  Haugh accounted for two runs in that frame thanks to his base knock into left.  Springfield added two runs in the eighth to complete the scoring.

Wheaton breaks from league play on Friday with a road game at Curry College at 3:30 p.m.
