FARMINGTON, Maine - A four-run sixth inning rally allowed Lyndon to take a 6-4 victory in the opener before a four-run seventh-inning rally gave the University of Maine at Farmington a 9-8 win in the second game of North Eastern Athletic Conference East Division twinbill at Hippach Field.

In Game 1, Jake Ainsworth (Fairfax, Vt.), Stetson Hicks (Whitefield, N.H.) and Corey Lescault (Bristol, R.I.) had one run-producing hit each in a four-run sixth for the Hornets in the 6-4 win. Shayne Kirby (Fairfax, Vt.) singled and doubled for Lyndon State, while Ben Clark (Brattleboro, Vt.) contributed two singles.

Jack MacVane singled twice and drove in two runs for the Beavers with Kyle Shea singling and doubling and Brett Wallingford blasting a solo home run.
