EMMITSBURG, MD – Mount St. Mary's hit five home runs to propel the Mountaineers to a 12-5 victory over the St. Bonaventure University baseball team Friday afternoon.
 
The ball was flying out of the ballpark as the clubs combined for eight home runs.
 
The Mount grabbed a 1-0 lead in the third inning on an unfortunate play for Bona's defense. Scott Seeker hit a blooper to left field, causing a collision between left fielder 
Adam Rankie and shortstop 
Artin Biageyian as the ball would fall to give the hosts an early advantage.
 
Mount St. Mary's (8-8) tacked on two more runs in the bottom of the fourth inning.
 
The Bonnies offense answered in the top of the fifth with a pair of solo home runs from 
Danny Manion and 
Jake Biscailuz, cutting Mount's lead to 3-2. This marks the first home run for Biscailuz since he transferred to Bonaventure prior to the 2021 season.
 
The Mount would answer with a big seventh inning, scoring six runs on four hits to take an 11-3 lead. The big blows were a pair of round-trippers off the bats of Scott Seeker (two RBIs) and David Stirpe (three RBIs).
 
Bonnies redshirt sophomore 
Mark Darakjy hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth, but it would prove too little to late as The Mount secured a 12-5 win.
 
At the plate, Mount St. Mary's was led by Scott Seeker's three home runs and five runs batted in, while David Stirpe (three RBIs) and Brady Drawbaugh each tallied a big fly.
 
Starting pitcher Cooper Adams worked seven innings for the Mounts, giving up three runs and striking out eight batters.
 
For St. Bonaventure (1-12), freshman pitcher 
Jonny Lintell made a solid first collegiate start by throwing four innings while allowing three runs on five hits with two strikeouts.
 
Senior 
Jackson DeJohn finished Friday afternoon with a team-high two hits, while Darakjy drove in two runs.
 
The Bonnies and The Mount will be back at it tomorrow with first pitch set for 1:00 p.m.
