CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Freshman Shane Bussey had three hits, including his first career home run, and three RBI to lead the University of Maine to a 9-7 baseball victory over Boston College.

Colin Gay, Alex Calbick and Eric White each drove in two runs as the Black Bears (32-19) built a 7-0 lead in the first six innings.

The Eagles (11-38) cut it to 7-4 going into the ninth, but Maine got some insurance on Bussey’s two-run shot.
