...Larkin on second base, leftfielder Paul Scheper made a sliding, one handed catch of a sinking liner. "I always hold up the ball real quick, just like the pros," Scheper said after the game...Everybody got into the hit parade except for Wark, the number-nine hitter. Freshman Bruce Weller continued to excel in the leadoff spot, rapping out two hits in five at bats.

...some good news, Nahigian has found his lead-off hitter in freshman center fielder Bruce Weller. A quick singles hitter with a bit of power, Weller has matched his solid play in the pasture with a nice performance at the plate. He walks often (11 in 64 plate appearances), can steal bases and has hit around .330 all season. Nothing special compared to Columbia's kiddie corps, but good enough for second on the team around here...
...NOTEBOOK: Allard's single preserved a four-game hitting streak. The sophomore has hit the ball very well of late, and his sub-. 100 average has swelled to a respectable .267.

Northeastern's pitching staff--at least two-thirds of which must have played--helped out the Crimson attack, handing out eight free passes.

That just about says it all. What beat the Crimson were mostly mental mistakes, or what Nahigian calls "errors of omission." Like in the disastrous second, when Danny Skaff (rightfield) and Bruce Weller (center) circled under what should have been a routine fly-ball, only to have it drop between them...
