Staten Island, NY - On a chilly night at Richmond County Bank Ballpark it was the red hot Wagner offense that was the story of the game as the Seahawks rolled to a 13-7 win over Saint Peter's.

The Green & White recorded season-highs in runs (13) and hits (20) while the first four hitters combined to go 14-for-21 with nine RBI and seven runs while to improving to 9-22 as the Peacocks fall to 10-22.

In the top of the third, the visitors opened the scoring with two runs before Wagner stormed back with four while batting around in the bottom part of the frame. Senior Shaun Flynn (Tabernacle, NJ / Burlington CC) delivered the big hit with a bases loaded two-run single, to tie the game up at 2-2. Sophomore John Lynn (Wallingford, PA / Salesianum School (DE)) then continued his torrid hitting of late with a RBI single before Flynn scored on an error to make it a 4-2 game.

After Danny Marsh (Fr., Monroe Township, NJ / Monroe Township) made quick work of Saint Peter's in the top of the fourth, the offense was right back at it in the bottom of inning. The Seahawks again batted around while adding four runs to the lead in jumping out to an insurmountable 8-2 advantage.

The Peacocks got one of those runs back in the top of the fifth only to see the Green & White answer with three more in the bottom part of the frame in extending the lead to 11-3.

In the top of the sixth, Saint Peter's batted around in trimming the deficit to 11-6 but left the bases loaded as junior RHP Max Schmardel (Eatontown, NJ / Monmouth Regional) induced a weak fly out to end the frame.

Wagner used a two-out rally in the bottom part of the sixth to add two more runs as junior Jason Gordon (Baltimore, MD / Archbishop Curley) plated classmate Dan Wasilick (Toms River, NJ / Toms River East), who had doubled for the second-straight inning with one out. Gordon would then come in to score on junior Nick Dini's (Monroe Township, NJ / Monroe Township) second double of the game.

The Peacocks would get one more run back but nothing else against Schmardel, who struck out two and yielded just an unearned run in collecting his first collegiate save. With the stop, the Garden State native becomes the sixth different Seahawk to record a save this season.

Marsh (3-2) earned his team-best third victory of the season, striking out six while not walking a batter over 5.0 solid inning of three-run ball.

Dini went 4-for-5 with three runs and three RBI while Flynn was 4-for-6 with three RBI and two runs to lead the the powerful Green & White attack. Freshman Nick Mascelli (Clifton, NJ / Seton Hall Prep), Gordon and Lynn all also notched three hits apiece.

Rob Moore went 2-for-4 with three RBI to pace a Peacock unit that saw all nine regulars hit safely en route to rapping out 14 hits.

Wagner returns to action tomorrow with a 1:00 pm doubleheader against NJIT at the ballpark.
