Baseball Splits Sunshine State Roadtrip

“I think for him it was just getting out there,” Herrmann said. “We’re definitely not worried about him.”

Wilson finished with three RBI and junior Josh Klimkiewicz went 2-for-4.

HARVARD 17, BETHUNE-COOKMAN 3

A Friday storm in rainy Daytona delayed the Florida arrival of Harvard’s much-hyped offense, but not for long.

Mann got things started Saturday with his first home run of the season—a third-inning three-run blast following a Griff Jenkins RBI single—and Wilson delivered four RBI in a 3-for-5 breakout performance.

Klimkiewicz added three hits and two RBI—and in the process, raised his early-season batting average to .500.

“He’s coming around,” Herrmann said. “He hits it hard.”

Starter Javier Castellanos (1-1) coasted through four innings, yielding one unearned run and only two hits for the Crimson. It was his first start since No. 17 Louisiana-Lafayette roughed him up in Minneapolis last weekend.
