Grand Rapids, Mich. – Tech baseball travelled up to Calvin College and came out on top with a 4-2 and 8-2 sweep. The team's overall record is now 17-4 and the start of another win streak.

Game 1 

Elliot Chibe (3-1) made the start for the Hawks and went one out shy of the complete game going 6.2 innings with 8 hits, 2 runs (all earned), 1 strikeout and no walks. Michael Malfeo came in to close the game out for his 4^th save on the season with a strikeout of the only batter he faced. 

Calvin College scored two runs in the home section of the 3^rd inning with a double right down the line and a sacrifice fly. But then the pitching of Chibe/Malfeo shut the door the rest of the way. Tech in the 6^th inning took the lead for good off of a double by Malfeo scoring William Cronin.  That was followed by a Brian Colon-Rodriguez home run; his 6^th on the season.  The Hawks added one more for insurance in the top of the 7^th as Malfeo doubled again, scoring Austin Boos.

"This was a tournament style win for us today against a team that is very strong on both sides of the ball." Said Head Coach Scott Marks after the game.
