Wildcats Drop Tight Decision to Maryland in Game One

4/2/2021 7:52:00 PM | Baseball

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Northwestern dropped game one on the road against Maryland, 4-3, in a tight affair. 

The Wildcats took an early 3-0 lead and nearly held on but ultimately could not find an insurance run. The 'Cats moved to 9-6 on the season while Maryland improved to 7-9. 

Mike Doherty turned in an excellent start with 7.0 innings pitched and just one run allowed, while striking out three and allowing six hits and a walk. 

Junior Shawn Goosenberg hit his sixth home run of the season with a solo shot in the second inning. The 'Cats scored their first two runs in the first on a bases loaded walk drawn by Vincent Bianchina and a hard hit ground ball from Leo Kaplan that resulted in a Maryland error. 

The 'Cats totaled five hits and held Maryland to seven in a low scoring affair. 

Northwestern will have a chance for revenge tomorrow against the Terps in game one of a Saturday doubleheader set for 11 a.m. CT, with game two against Michigan roughly scheduled for 3 p.m. Jack Dyke is scheduled to start against Maryland while Tyler Uberstine is scheduled to start against the Wolverines.
