Loyola was simply unable to stop Faulkner’s starting pitcher Victor Arche in the first game. The Wolf Pack managed just two hits against Arche, a single by Jordan Wilson in the fourth inning and a Rawlings Elam infield single in the seventh inning. In both instances, the Eagles erased the Pack runner with a double play on the very next batter. Arche went the full seven innings for the Eagles, striking out nine Loyola batters and walking none. The Pack lost the first game 4-0.

In the second game, Faulkner took a 2-1 lead over Loyola. Faulkner then scored one run in the third inning, two in the fourth and three in the fifth when Robert Llera, Dennis Morton and Dario Polanco hit back-to-back-to-back home runs. Faulkner downed the Pack in the second game 8-2.

The team will be back in action on Friday, March 20, to take on Middle Georgia State on the road.
