Me and a PSU-alum friend have been trash talking about this one. Let's get some wins

NU dropped the opener 5-3 to LIU.

Schlittler got the loss, pitching 4 innings, allowing 3 hits, 3 runs, 2 earned, 3 BB’s and 4 K’s. LIU’s #1 starter went 5 innings and held NU to just 1 hit and struck out 5.

DH Corey DiLoreto his a 3-run double in the 6th to cut NU’s deficit to 5-3, but that was it as NU had 4 just hits as a team.

Back at it Saturday in a DH against a Monmouth team that beat Penn State in the 1st game today.

Bounced back in the Saturday matinee to beat Monmouth. Pitching not as sharp as I expected these first two games, but I'm sure they'll improve. Is Crossen injured?
