RAMS RUNDOWN
After splitting a non-conference doubleheader at UMass Boston Friday, Suffolk (13-10) had took a break from action over the weekend.  

Harry Painter and Luke Harder provide a one-two punch at the plate. Harder leads the way in hits with 34 behind a .378 average to go along with 19 runs scored. Painter has 31 hits to his credit on a team-best .392 connection rate at the dish and 22 runs scored. Both have brought in 25 runs. Joe Ward is a consistent in the offensive conversation as well with a team-high 27 RBI on 29 hits with 24 runs scored.  

Suffolk may leave its most reliable arms for the weekend with a conference clash on tap. Steven Rossi (20.2 IP, 20 K), George Breslin (14.0 IP, 6K0, Shawn Nosky (14.2 IP, 19 K) and Michael Muscarella (24.0 IP, 22 K) may be in the starting rotation this week. Casey Sullivan (15.2 IP, 4.02 ERA, 13 K) and Jake Washock (9.0 IP, 4.00 ERA, 9 K) will likely be called upon out of the pen.    

BEARS BREAKDOWN
Bridgewater State (14-6) takes a six-game win streak into Tuesday's tilt with Suffolk. The Bears have shutout their foes in the last four meetings.  

Jay Wladkowski is batting an impressive .420/.460/.531 with 34 hits, 21 RBI and 24 runs scored. Scott Emerson, who is hitting .359, has proven to be an offensive threat as well with 28 hits, 14 RBI, 20 runs scored and 18 stolen bases. 

The Bears have a hectic week five games over the next four days, which will limit their options on the mound, however, the staff enters the week with 4.18 combined ERA. In midweek games, BSU has relied on Ethan Grade (6.2 IP, 7 K) and Patrick Cashin (9.2 IP, 6.52 ERA, 8 K).

LYONS LOOK
Wheaton split a doubleheader with Springfield Sunday to carry a 12-8 record into the week that starts Tuesday, April 12 at Clark.  

Five different bats have produced 20-plus hits over 20 games to pace the Lyons 161-run offense behind a .295 team average.

Griffin Young (2.25 ERA, 32.0 IP, 41 K) and Gavin Reily (2.20 ERA, 28.2 IP, 22 K) are in the starting mix as well, but may be saved for Wheaton's weekend slate that features a three-game NEWMAC series with MIT.
