ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. -- Senior David Woolley set the Elizabethtown College baseball team hits record in game two on Saturday in the Blue Jays' split with Wilkes. Woolley helped Etown rally for a 4-2 win and collected his record-breaking 223rd hit in the process.

GAME 1: WILKES 8, ELIZABETHTOWN 4
A sloppy start for the Jays' defense cost the home team a few runs as Wilkes sprinted out to a 4-0 lead after one inning.

Elizabethtown got those runs back with a big third inning of their own. Sawyer Martin's RBI sac fly to center scored Nathan Schwing. The inning continued as Nick Fiorini doubled home Alex Perrin and Alex McClain followed that up with a two-run blast to left field to tie the game at 4-4.

The Colonels grabbed the lead back with a three-run homer in the sixth to retake the lead at 7-4. They added another run in the seventh.

The Jays left three on base over the final three innings as they couldn't response and Wilkes took the opening game of the three-game series.

GAME 2: ELIZABETHTOWN 4, WILKES 2
Woolley, who tied Kyle Fackler's hits record with his hit in game one, needed just the one to break it and did so in his first at-bat of game two. The senior singled through the right side and received plenty of support and applause as the announcement was made over the PA system.

Wilkes led 1-0 after one and 2-0 after three, but for the most part, the Elizabethtown staff limited the Colonels, including a key situation in the eighth inning.

Before that, though, it was the Blue Jays who applied the pressure to Wilkes. The bottom of the seventh began with two straight outs and that's when EC came to life. Woolley drew a walk, as did Martin and Fiorini to load the bases for McClain. A fourth straight walk brought home a run and the Jays were on the board, trailing now 2-1.

After a second pitching change in the inning, AJ Lipscomb sent a ball up the middle that the diving second basemen couldn't keep in the infield while two runs scored on the play to put Elizabethtown in front for the first time. Parker Summers followed with an RBI single to left field to score McClain and Etown now led 4-2 going into the eighth.

The Colonels, who had moved well on the base paths and were able to get players on base, had the bases loaded with one out as Cory Rible was brought in to get the hosts out of a jam. Rible's first batter struck out looking and the sophomore induced a grounder to McClain at third, who took the ball on a hop and made the play to first to get the Blue Jays out of it unscathed.

Rible retired the side in order in the ninth to close out game two and split the opening day with his third save. Caeden Schulte earned the win for the Jays in relief.

Elizabethtown and Wilkes will wrap up their series tomorrow back at Boyd Stadium at 12 p.m.
