MILLINGTON, Tenn. (March 18, 2023) – A seven-run second inning proved too much to overcome as the USMMA baseball team finished its five-game Tennessee road trip with a 13-3 loss to Sewanee.
 
Senior Joey Zanetti (Richmond, Va.) finished 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored, while sophomore Danny Heck (Massillon, Ohio) went 2-for-3 to register the lone multi-hit game for USMMA (6-5). Sophomore Jack Millen (Shelby, N.C.) and classmate Travis Leatherwood (Catonsville, Md.) added an RBI apiece for the Mariners. Sewanee (12-8-1) had three players collect multi-hit games.
