Parker tossed all 7.0 innings and allowed just two walks against his 14 strikeouts to claim his third win of the season. Parker's 14 Ks are tied for the fourth-most in a single game in program history.

Sophomore catcher Cooper Romich (North Chili, N.Y./Churchville-Chili) went 2 for 3 at the plate with two RBIs and two runs to improve his batting average to .354 through 15 starts.

Parker compiled eight strikeouts through the first three innings, and added two more in the bottom of the fourth.

Stevenson) as Le Moyne extended its lead to 12-1.

Le Moyne scored three more runs in the seventh via a bases-loaded walk from freshman infielder Tim Denet (West Harrison, N.Y./Iona Prep), a sacrifice fly from Ries, and an RBI single from Farina.
