Dover, Del. - The Wesley College baseball team posted victories of 11-0 and 9-4 over St. Mary's College of Maryland Monday afternoon to finish third in the regular-season league standings and claim the No. 3 seed in the 2009 Capital Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament which begins tomorrow with first-round action.

In the first game, junior RHP Ryan Doran (Bensalem, Pa./Bensalem) was within one out of pitching a no-hitter as Doran (4-0) gave up two singles in the seventh.  He walked three and fanned two Seahawks.

Junior infielder Grant Morlock (Bel Air, Md./Fallston), sophomore infielder Geoff Kimmel (Lawrenceville, N.J./Lawrence), and sophomore catcher Billy Crowe (Newark, Del./Salesianum) each went 3-for-4 to pace the Wolverine offense as Wesley (22-12-1, 11-7 CAC) scored 11 runs on 13 hits.  Morlock crossed home plate four times, while Kimmel and Morlock drove in two runs.

Sophomore RHP Mikel Iraola (Silver Spring, Md./DeMatha) was tagged with the loss after allowing three runs on five walks in 1.0 inning.

Wesley took a 2-0 lead in the fourth inning of the nightcap as Kimmel jacked a two-run home run before the Seahawks (13-16, 7-11 CAC) knotted the contest at 2-all following a two-run homer by Iraola in the fifth.

The Wolverines broke the game open with four runs in the bottom of the fifth to establish a 6-2 lead that they would never relinquish as Wesley tacked on three more runs in the sixth.  St. Mary's added a run in the sixth and the seventh as the Seahawks finished the game with four runs on five hits.

Iraola finished with a 2-for-2 effort at the plate with his first career homer to lead SMCM at the plate.  Sophomore Barrett Enix (Suffolk, Va./Nansemond-Suffolk Academy) suffered the loss on the mound as Enix (2-4) gave up six runs on six hits and four walks in 4.2 innings.  He struck out three Wolverines.

Senior LHP Mike Dombrosky (Bridgeport, N.J./Paulsboro) picked up the win as Dombrosky (3-4) yielded two runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks in 5.0 innings.  Kimmel posted another 3-for-4 effort at the plate with three RBI and two runs scored.
