Sam Leck Tosses A No Hitter And Laker Baseball Sweeps Wayne State, 5-1 and 14-3

Grand Valley State swept a GLIAC doubleheader Saturday at Wayne State, winning game one 5-1, behind a no-hitter from senior Sam Leck, and game two 14-3. The final game of the weekend series will have a first pitch of 1 p.m. 
 
Game 1
 
Leck (3-1) was the story of the game, throwing the ninth no-hitter in GVSU Baseball history and the first since 2011. Leck allowed one earned run in seven innings, striking out five and walking three on 89 pitches. He recorded 11 ground outs, four fly outs and induced one double play. The lone run was scored after a hit by pitch, stolen base, sac fly and groundout in the first inning.
 
The Lakers struck for four runs on six hits in the top of the fourth. 3B Jonas Gulbrandsen and C Brendan Guciardo opened with singles, followed by an RBI single off the bat of DH Connor McCormack that plated Gulbrandsen. 1B Logan Anderson then delivered a 2-RBI double to left center. 2B Jake Rydquist and CF Ayden VanEnkevort both singled and LF Ryan Dykstra came through with a sac fly to plate Rydquist. Dykstra plated the Lakers' fifth run with a 465-foot home run to right center that cleared the Lodge and hit a retaining wall. 
 
Dykstra was 1-2 with a home run, two RBIs and a run scored, while Anderson was 1-3 with a double and two RBI. VanEnkevort and SS Connor Schuman were both 2-4, while Guciardo was 3-3 with a run scored and Gulbrandsen was 1-4 with a run scored. McCormack was 1-3 with an RBI and a run scored. 
 
Game 2
 
GVSU scored early and often in game two, pushing across one in the first and second, five in the third and three more in the fourth to take a 10-0 lead. Dykstra set the tone with a first-inning solo blast to center. Rydquist pushed across a run in the second with an RBI single and the flood gates opened in the third. Guciardo recorded an RBI single, Anderson plated two with a 2-run RBI double and two more crossed the plate with a 2-run error when VanEnkevort reached base. 
 
Guciardo, Rydquist and VanEnkevort each tallied an RBI single in the fourth to push the lead to 10-0. VanEnkevort added another RBI single and Rydquist drove in two with a triple to center. 
 
Mike Morawski (4-3) picked up the win, yielding two runs on five hits with nine strikeouts in 7.1 innings. Casey Kedzierski went the final 1.1 innings. 
 
Rydquist was 3-4 with a triple, four RBI and a run scored, while Guciardo and Anderson each produced identical stat lines of 3-6, with two RBI and three runs scored. VanEnkevort was 2-5 with two RBI and Dykstra was 2-3 with a HR, one RBI and two runs scored. Catcher Nick Krstich was 2-5 with a run scored. 
 
The Lakers scored 19 runs on 30 hits, including four doubles, three by Anderson, a triple and two home runs, both by Dykstra. The GVSU starting pitchers yielded two runs on five hits with 14 strikeouts in 14.1 innings. WSU scored a run in the first inning of game one and did not score again until the ninth inning of game two.
