Rams overpower Johnson University in twinbill

BLUEFIELD, Va. -- Chris McCollister had a five-RBI day, while both Tyler Timmer and Will Kane had four RBI apiece in Wednesday's twinbill sweep over Johnson University by scores of 11-2 and 13-0 at Bowen Field.

The Rams move to 16-11 having swept double headers each of the last two days. The Rams are now 8-2 at Bowen Field this season. Johnson University dropped to 1-10 with the pair of losses.

Game 1
The Rams scored at least a run in each of the first five innings, en route to the 11-2 win. McCollister was a perfect 4-for-4 at the dish--logging an RBI double in the first, an RBI triple in the fourth and a two-RBI single in the fifth, while adding another single in the second inning.

Braden Freeman also had a multi-RBI game in the opener, with his two-run single coming in a five-run fifth inning for the Rams. Kane led off the frame with a solo home run.

Trayvond Brooks earned the win, allowing two runs on six hits while striking out four.

Game 2
Bluefield continued to roll in the second game, once again scoring in five of the seven innings.

The Rams got off to a fast start, scoring four runs in the bottom of the first. A McCollister single brought in Ryan Lawson before Kane hit his second homer of the day, a three-run shot to make it 4-0.

A sacrifice fly from Nic Ratliff in the third and a Timmer triple in the fourth made it 6-0 before the Rams hammered out seven hits and scored six runs in the bottom of the fifth.

A Sawyer McLamb double scored Garrett Schilling. Tyler Rome later added a two-RBI single and Freeman singled to drive in another run. A two-run homer from Timmer closed the Rams' scoring in the inning.

Bluefield tacked on one more run with Schilling scoring on a Ben Rife double in the sixth as BC took the 13-0 win.

Addison Wood (3.0 IP), Cory Niten (2.0 IP), Kaleb Houchins (1.0 IP) and Alex Haas (1.0 IP) combined for the four-hit shutout.

Bluefield makes its return to Appalachian Athletic Conference play this weekend, traveling for a three-game set against Montreat College. Play on both Saturday and Sunday is slated for a 1 p.m. start.
