The University of Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks baseball squad posted their most productive offensive showing of the season on Wednesday, crossing home plate 11 times in a midweek contest against Siena, though it wasn’t enough to secure victory.
Despite the disappointing result, the Hawks found a bright spot in freshman Diego Alicea’s performance at the plate. The rookie achieved a personal milestone by collecting multiple hits in a single game for the first time in his college career.
The 11-run output marked the team’s highest-scoring effort through the early portion of the season, demonstrating the Hawks’ offensive potential even in defeat. The strong showing at the plate could provide momentum as the team continues its campaign.
Alicea’s breakthrough performance highlights the development of young talent on the Hawks roster as they work to establish consistency throughout the lineup in the weeks ahead.
