Freshman Austin Kreyenhagen threw five strong innings as the Profs improved to 27-8 and 12-4 in the conference.

Struble hit a two-run single with Mannino, Chris Serrano, Damon Suriani and Jason Morgan each contributing an RBI as well. 
Rutgers-Newark (15-21; 7-9) got a run in the second and the Profs added another to go up 10-1. Rowan then went on to score six in the fourth as Cannon brought home two with a single and Sedalis hit a three-run homer to give the Profs a commanding 15-1 lead. Suriani doubled to score Mannino for his second RBI of the game and a 16-1 Rowan advantage. 
Rowan wasn't finished as it added another five runs in the fifth inning to take a 21-1 lead. Struble led off with a solo home run before Sedalis hit a grand slam, for the second time this year he's hit two home runs in a game. 
Rutgers-Newark picked up three runs in the sixth to close out the scoring. 
Kreyenhagen upped his record to 4-1 on the year as he struck out three and got help from teammates Luke Vaks, Jack Hudson, Evan Brasberger, Jack Norton and Jayson Dougherty.
