#9 GVSU Claims 4-0 Senior Day Win Over Wayne State And Wins The Series 3-1

Senior Alan Thorington improves to 5-0 on the year

#9 Grand Valley State claimed a 4-0 victory over Wayne State Saturday afternoon and won the series 3-1. The Lakers improve to 31-10 overall and 14-6 in GLIAC action. 

Grand Valley State used a pair of two-out, two-run singles in the second and fourth innings to earn the win. 2B Ayden VanEnkevort reached on a fielder's choice and CF Caden Thelen was hit by a pitch with two outs. A wild pitch advanced to the runners up a base and RF Ryan Stimac singled to center to plate VanEnkevort and Thelen. In the fourth inning VanEnkevort singled and Thelen walked, followed by a Stimac fielder's choice. 3B Caleb Estrada was hit by a pitch to load the bases. SS Evan Morrison came through with a 2-out single to left to score Stimac and Thelen and give GVSU a 4-0 lead. 

Four runs were all the Laker pitching staff would need. Senior Alan Thorington was stellar on the mound, not allowing a Wayne State hit until the sixth inning. Thorington, who improved to 5-0 on the year, yielded just three hits with five strikeouts in 7.1 innings pitched and allowed just one runner to reach second base. Junior Ayden VanEnkevort was able to get the final thee outs to secure the win. 

Morrison was 1-4 with two RBI and Stimac was 1-3 with two RBI. LF Ryan Dykstra walked twice, VanEnkevort was 1-4 with a run scored, while Thelen walked twice, was hit by a pitch and scored two runs.
