Lorman, Miss. – Head baseball coach Steve Bieser earned his 100th career victory Monday afternoon with a 17-4 victory over Alcorn State (1-3).
Â
"To me, 100 is just a number," Bieser said. "At this point I am more concerned with this club and finding ways to get better each day."
Â
The win is the Redhawks' first of the young 2016 season as they are now 1-3.
Â
The Redhawks' 17 runs came on 16 hits against Alcorn. Designated hitter Kylar Robertson had a huge day at the plate. Robertson finished with three hits, falling a home run short of hitting for the cycle, and drove in five runs.
Â
Bieser added, "In the Lamar series, we found some things that we needed to readdress and focus on improving. The team did a good job of focusing on the areas we struggled with against Alcorn today. Now we need to have a couple good practices and carry that into next weekend against Pine Bluff."
Â
In his collegiate debut, Redhawk starter Daniel Bergtholdt (1-0) pitched three innings. Bergtholdt allowed two runs on three hits, and struck out two. Southeast was able to see seven other pitchers in the game.
Â
Southeast put up a four spot in the opening frame. Back-to-back singles to lead off the game by Trevor Ezell and Branden Boggetto followed by a walk to Garrett Gandolfo loaded the bases. Ryan Rippee lined a base hit to left to score Ezell and Boggetto. Following a sacrifice bunt by Dan Holst, Robertson doubled to left to plate Gandolfo and Rippee to make it 4-0 after the top of the first.
Â
The Redhawks broke the game wide open in the second inning with six runs. Ezell reached on a one-out base hit then scored from first on a double to left by Boggetto. After a walk to Gandolfo, an error by the left fielder allowed Rippee to score, Gandolfo to advance to third, and Boggetto to score. A walk to Holst loaded the bases for Robertson. Robertson singled in Gandolfo to make it 7-0. Scott Mitchell stepped in a drilled a double to right field to clear the bases and extend the lead to 10-0. The bases-clearing double was enough to knock Alcorn starter Nick Brooks out of the game after only retiring four hitters.
Â
Alcorn touched home with a pair of runs off Bergtholdt in the bottom of the second inning, 10-2 Redhawks.
Â
Southeast had another big inning in the sixth. Gandolfo led off the inning by being hit by a pitch. Following a one-out walk to Holst, Robertson tripled to score both runners and widen the lead back to 10, 12-2. Brian Lees drove in Robertson with a double to down the left field line. Lees was plated on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Hunter Leeper to bring the score to 14-2.
Â
The Braves plated a single run in the bottom of the sixth inning and again in the seventh to cut the lead to 14-4. Â
Â
With two out and runners on second and third, Ezell broke up a double play to reach and allow Lees to touch home. Daniel Costello hit a base hit to score Ezell from third. An error by the leftfielder allowed Costello to advance to second and Boggetto to reach third. A throwing error on a failed caught stealing allowed Boggetto to trot home and extend the lead to 17-4.
Â
Ezell, Boggetto, Costello, and Rippee all had a pair of hits Monday. Rippee and Mitchell each had three RBI in the contest. Seven total Redhawks scored multiple runs.
Â
Southeast totaled six doubles in the game.
Â
A trio of student-athlete made their Redhawk debuts Monday including Garret Reynolds, Jared Waldhoff, and Bergtholdt.
Â
The Redhawks are back in action for a weekend series at Arkansas-Pine Bluff. The series will begin Friday, Feb. 26, at 2:05 p.m.
