C of O vs Randall University – Game 1, Friday, April 19
Coming off a pair of losses at Southwestern Christian University on Tuesday, the Bobcats returned to the friendly confines of Coach Bob Smith Field for their final home series of the season. 

Brody Baumann got the start on the mound in game one and quickly disposed of the Saints in the opening frame. A Ty Rush single was erased by a double play in the bottom half and the game moved to the second with neither team able to get the offense going. Baumann pitched around a single in the second and the Bobcats used a Rhett Hill single and two Saints miscues to score a pair of runs and take a 2-0 lead to the third. A double and a walk for the Saints in the third were stranded and the Bobcats returned to the plate looking to add to their lead. Singles by Trey Riley, Spencer Greene, Rhett Hill, and Hunter Lewis put a trio of runs on the board. A two-RBI double off the bat of Jake Leeker bumped the lead to 8-0 and the game moved to the fourth. Baumann cruised through the top of the inning and the Bobcats came up looking for more. Baumann continued to cruise on the mound and a Ty Rush single was combined with a Saints error to add another Bobcat tally. Both pitchers faced the minimum in the fifth and Baumann pitched out of a bases load jam in the sixth to keep the shutout intact. A quick three outs in the bottom of the inning sent the game to the seventh and Baumann faced the minimum to secure the 9-0 win.

Ty Rush and Rhett Hill had a pair of hits each to lead the Bobcats, while Spencer Greene, Hunter Lewis, Jake Leeker (2B), and Trey Riley each added a hit in the win. Baumann went the distance to pick up the shutout.

Rhett Hill took the mound for game two and the Saints used a single and a double to take an early 1-0 lead. The Bobcats wasted no time responding in the bottom of the first with a Chuck Hill walk, a single off the bat of Ty Rush, a Saints error, and a walk to Spencer Greene. A Rhett Hill fielder’s choice extended the inning, and the Bobcats took a 2-1 lead. The bats were quiet on both sides in the second and the Saints used a pair of singles to add a run to tie it in the third. The Bobcats used a Ty Rush hit by pitch and a single by Spencer Greene to set up a two RBI single off the bat of Rhett Hill. The Bobcats took a 4-2 lead and the game moved to the fourth. Hill limited the Saints to a single over the next two innings and the Bobcats were held to a single by Ty Rush. Hill pitched around a pair of hits in the top of the sixth to hold the score at 4-2 and the Bobcats came up looking for some insurance. A single by Charlie Parker started the offense and a Caleb Johnson walk was followed by a single by Trey Riley. A single by Chuck Hill and a sacrifice fly off the bat of Spencer Greene added to the score and the Bobcat lead grew to 7-2 heading to the seventh. The Saints threatened a comeback and used a pair of singles and a double to add two runs before Hill slammed the door closed and secured the 7-4 win.

Ty Rush led the offense with a pair of hits and Chuck Hill, Spencer Greene, Rhett Hill, Jake Leeker, Charlie Parker, and Trey Riley each added a hit in the win.

C of O vs Randall University – Game 3, Saturday, April 20
On Senior Day at Coach Bob Smith Field, the Bobcats were looking to stay hot to add and to the celebration of their seven seniors. Titus Atkins, Spencer Greene, Caleb Johnson, Chuck Hill, Riley Loyd, Tyler Buchanan, and Rhett Hill were playing in their final home series and the Bobcats wanted to send them out with a couple of wins. The Senior Day festivities would take place between games on Saturday.

Spencer Greene went to the mound for the Bobcats and pitched around a two-out walk to keep the Saints in check. The Bobcats were looking to keep the momentum going from the two wins the day before and a Chuck Hill walk got things started. Ty Rush singled and a Rhett Hill fielder’s choice was combined with a Randall error to give the Bobcats a 2-0 lead. Greene cruised through the second and the Bobcats used singles by Charlie Parker and Caleb Johnson to add a run in the bottom half. The Saints picked up a single in the third and a single by Hunter Lewis and a walk to Rhett Hill was all the offense for the Bobcats. Bats for both teams were quite in the fourth and the game moved to the fifth with the Bobcats holding a 3-0 lead. The Saints battled back for a pair of runs in the top of the inning before Greene closed the door to keep the 3-2 lead. A walk to Greene was all the offense for the Cats in the fifth and things were getting interesting in the late innings. Greene pitched around an error in the top of the sixth and the Bobcats came up looking to build on their lead. A one out walk to Jake Leeker started the offense and a double by Charlie Parker put runners at second and third. A pair of fly ball outs ended the threat, however and the game moved to the seventh. Clinging to a 3-2 lead, Greene went back to the mound looking for the complete game win. A leadoff single for the visitors gave them a chance but Greene clamped down and retired the next three to secure the win.

Charlie Parker turned in a two-hit performance for the Bobcats and Ty Rush, Hunter Lewis, and Caleb Johnson had one hit each.

C of O vs Randall University – Game 4, Saturday, April 20
Looking to complete the sweep, Tyler Buchanan took the mound for the Bobcats. Buchanan pitched out of a bases loaded jam in the first to keep the game scoreless and bring the Bobcats to the plate.

Buchanan made quick work of the Saints in the second and the Bobcats were limited to a pair of singles by Rhett Hill and Trey Riley. The Saints were set down in order in the third and fourth and the Bobcats picked up a single off the bat of Ty Rush in the third.

The Saints responded in the top of the fifth and used a walk, a hit by pitch, and a pair of singles to tie the score, 2-2. The Bobcats stole a run in the bottom half with a hit by pitch to Chuck Hill, and a Ty Rush sacrifice bunt moving him to second. A Hunter Lewis fielder’s choice put runners at the corners and a perfectly executed double steal scored Hill from third. That was all the Bobcats could get and they held a 3-2 lead moving to the sixth. Aaron Gross came on to pitch the sixth and made quick work of the Saints. The Bobcats returned to the plate and needed some insurance runs. A pair of walks was all the offense and Gross went back to the mound looking to close out the win. A leadoff single made things interesting before Gross retired the next three to seal the win.
