Kealey reaches 100 career Ks with nine in 11-2 win over Augsburg

TUCSON, Ariz. -- Junior Sean Kealey (Pittsburgh, Pa./Baldwin) reached 100 career strikeouts with nine over seven innings to propel the Gators to an 11-2 win over Augsburg (Minn.) to wrap up the seven-game trip to Arizona.

Kealey went a season-long 7.0 innings with a season-best 115 pitches. He struck out nine and walked just one while scattering six hits and two runs in improving to 2-2 this year. The nine K's were one shy of his career high and the victory is the 12th of his tenure in Blue & Gold.

Freshman Isaiah Lucas (Butler, Pa./Butler) worked the final 2.0 innings, striking out a pair and surrendering three hits.

An RBI single by senior Tommy Cannon (Hermitage, Pa./Hickory) plated the first run of the game in the top of the first before Allegheny opened the game up with a four spot in the second inning. Junior Andrew Vincent (Buffalo, N.Y./Canisius) had an RBI double before Cannon brought in two more runs with a single to left. Later, Cannon was caught in a rundown between first and second, which allowed freshman Brett Heckert (Wexford, Pa./North Allegheny) to score during the play, 5-0.

In the third, junior Bret Kelly (Tonawanda, N.Y./Tonawanda) drove in sophomore Luke Chutko (Pittsburgh, Pa./North Hills) with a single and senior Max Sessions (Bethesda, Md./Walt Whitman) brought home pinch-runner Ben Kosbie (Pittsburgh, Pa./Shady Side Academy) with a double off the left-field fence, 7-0.

Allegheny built the lead to 10-1 with three runs in the sixth thanks to RBI singles by Heckert and Lucas and a bases-loaded walk to senior Ethan Pawlak (Chardon, Ohio/Gilmour Academy). The final run of the game came off the bat of Vincent when he belted his second homer of the trip to left field, 11-2.

Senior Vincent Carone (Erie, Pa./McDowell) led all players with three hits (3-for-5), including a double, and also scored twice. Cannon, Kelly and Vincent both had two hits in the game, with Cannon driving in three and Vincent two.

The Gators, who head north with a 7-7 overall record after winning seven of their last nine games, are scheduled to open North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) play on Saturday, March 30 when they welcome Wabash to Robertson Baseball field for the 2019 home opener. The doubleheader is set to begin at 12 p.m.
