HARRISONBURG, Va. – James Madison dropped a 10-2 decision to Northeastern in the series opener of Colonial Athletic Association baseball action at Eagle Field on Friday evening.
The Dukes moved to 13-11, 1-3 CAA on the season, while the Huskies improve to 13-9 overall and 1-0 in conference play.
Sophomore Harry Brown turned in a 1-for-2 outing at the plate, with his sole hit being a two-run home run over the right-center field wall in the sixth inning. Senior Adam Sisk knocked in a hit in the contest, moving his reached-base streak to 20 games.
On the mound, senior Colton Harlow suffered his second loss of the season, putting him at 2-2 after tossing six innings with giving up five runs (four earned) on five hits and tallying five strikeouts.
Northeastern stormed out to a quick 3-0 lead after two innings of play before JMU reduced the deficit to one after Brown's two-run shot in the sixth. The Huskies answered right away by scoring seven runs over the last three innings to gain their first CAA victory of the season, 10-2.
QUOTING COACH IKE
"Give credit to Northeastern, they came out and fought hard and fought early. We just didn't pitch and play defense when we needed to. We have to put this one behind us and start fresh tomorrow."
