Lyndhurst, N.J. (3/16/25)  The Dominican University New York baseball team wrapped up their four-game series today with host, Felician University, in a Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) double-header played this afternoon.

The Golden Falcons won the first game, 6-5, while the Chargers took the nightcap, 5-4.

Dominican now stands at 8-6 overall and 2-2 in CACC play.

Game One:  The game was scoreless until the top of the fourth inning when the Chargers struck for four runs.  Shortstop David Knepper hit a two-run double and a third run came home on a Golden Falcon error.  Knepper later scored on the RBI ground out by Ryan Bongiorno for the 4-0 advantage.

Felician got a run back in the bottom of the sixth and added three more in the seventh to knot the game, 4-4.  DUNY re-took the lead in the top of the eighth as Knepper delivered a run-scoring triple down the right field line for the 5-4 edge, but the Golden Falcons got the run back in the bottom of the eighth and scored the game-winner in the ninth on an error for the 6-5 victory.

Centerfielder Erick Diaz went 3-5 in the game, while four other players had two hits a-piece.  Knepper finished the game with three RBIs.

John Stoliker took the loss.

Game Two:  The Chargers scored a run in the first on the RBI double down the right field line off the bat of Jake Chaisongkram and added three more in the second on back-to-back Golden Falcon error for the early 4-0 lead.

Felician got on the board with a run in the sixth and scored three more in the seventh to tie the game at 4-4.  Dominican scored the game-winner in the eighth on a Golden Falcon error for the 5-4 win.
