Freshman Liam Winslow gave the Blue Devils a huge lift at the plate, going 2-for-3 with a double, a run scored and two RBI. Pronti improved to 2-0 on the year as he threw six inning with six hits and two earned runs allowed. He received strong support early thanks to a 5-1 Wood-Ridge through three innings.
