#4S Chestnut Hill College to Host #5S USciences in Opening Round of CACC Championship

2021 CACC Baseball Championship Tournament
Philadelphia, Pa. - (5/5/2021) – With league members officially completing their regular season schedules, commissioner Dan Mara has released the field for the 2021 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) Baseball Championship Tournament. Serving as the #4 seed in the CACC South, Chestnut Hill College will host #5S the University of the Sciences (USciences) in a 6:00 p.m. Opening Round contest on Saturday, May 8. The opening round of the postseason tournament will also feature a May-8 matchup between #5N Post University and #4N Bloomfield College (3:00 p.m. @ BC). The CACC Baseball Quarterfinals are scheduled to take place at the home of the higher seed on Monday, May 10.
 
Chestnut Hill College (17-13) and USciences (9-14) met three times during the regular season with the Griffins defeating the Devils 10-5 on April 14, before splitting the April-18 CACC doubleheader with a 6-5 game-two victory.
 
Amidst a busy week of league play, Chestnut Hill College welcomed USciences to Hostelley Field for a nine-inning league affair. Each side scored a run through the first three innings, 1-1, but the Scarlet and Gold answered a second Devil run, 2-1, and broke the contest open in the bottom of the fourth inning with a series of hits batsmen, walks, and a grand slam from senior designated hitter Ameir Uzzell (Levittown, Pa.), 7-2. Meanwhile, junior Pat Woltemate (Philadelphia, Pa.) handed a solid four-inning start (4.0 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 6K) off to sophomore Dan Rockenbach (Holland, Pa.) (5.0 IP, 4 H, 2 ER, 2 BB, 5 K), who finished the contest for his third win (3-0) of the season, 10-5.
 
Just four days later, Chestnut Hill College visited USciences for a pair of contests at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania's Franklin D. Roosevelt Park. The Griffins got revenge on the Devils' 13-6 game-one win with another dramatic victory in game two. Down 5-3 in the seventh inning, the Scarlet and Gold used a leadoff home run from sophomore right fielder Corbin Dunnuck (Mohnton, Pa.), 5-4, and a two-out, two-run single from freshman left fielder Zach Ahmed (Las Vegas, Nev.) to come out ahead, 6-5.
