Jordan Schulefand went 3 for 5, with a double for Maine, while Connor Goodman and Colby Emmertz each drove in runs.

Starter Trevor LaBonte went seven innings, allowing a run on four hits, walking four and striking out four.

COLBY 6, HAMILTON 4:  Clint Flippo hit a three-run home run in third inning as the Mules (24-11) erased an early deficit and beat the Continentals (18-16) in their first game of the NESCAC double-elimination tournament at Hartford, Connecticut.
