...knew the season, regardless of what we were doing before, started today,” sophomore Steffan Wilson said after the Princeton games. “We needed two [wins]. We’d been struggling a little bit down in Florida.” Sophomore ace Shawn Haviland and freshman fireballer Adam Cole shut down Princeton—Cole fanned 11 in his Ivy debut—and seniors Javier Castellanos and Matt Brunnig provided competent, experienced innings at the back end of the rotation.
