CRAWFORDSVILLE, Indiana – The College of Wooster baseball team capped its 2024 season with a 7-3 win over Wabash College on Saturday afternoon at Goodrich Ballpark. Earlier in the day, Wabash beat Wooster 9-4.

Wooster (17-21, 5-11 North Coast Athletic Conference) denied Wabash (22-18, 8-8 NCAC) a spot in next week's four team conference tournament with the game-two win. Sophomore Jack Spring worked the final five innings to end the year with a 3-2 record. Spring allowed two runs on five hits. Sophomore Devin Anthony started the season finale and allowed an unearned run on three hits in four innings of work.

Senior left fielder Bryn Langley turned in a memorable performance, finishing a double shy of the cycle in a 3-for-3 outing with four RBI, a run scored, and a walk. Langley's solo homer in the second inning gave Wooster a 2-1 lead, and the Scots did not relinquish the advantage. Langley's triple cleared bases that were full of Scots in the seventh inning and those runs made it a 7-3 lead. Prior to the triple, first-year first baseman Zack Barienbrock walked, junior right fielder Alex Gerdenich singled to right field, and sophomore catcher Nathaniel Huxtable walked.

Two wild pitches and a Barienbrock sacrifice fly accounted for Wooster's other three runs in the win.

Grant Stratton dropped to 3-2 after allowing four runs on six hits in five innings.

Wooster's late charge in the opener was not enough. Senior pinch hitter Grant Mitchell kept the comeback bid rolling with a RBI single through the right side of the infield in the ninth inning. Junior third baseman Nick Pett started the inning with a single to center and was just 90 feet from home following a Barienbrock double down the left field line. Gerdenich's two-run single had Wooster within 9-4, but the Scots caught a bad break with a lineout double play that ended the game.

Earlier, sophomore designated hitter Ryan Kramer put the Scots on the board with a third-inning double to right center.

Caleb Everson went to 6-2 on the year. He allowed four runs on eight hits in eight innings. Senior Corey Knauf was the losing pitcher, falling to 4-5. Knauf allowed six runs (four earned) on 11 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Westrick and Kramer led Wooster from the top of the lineup with a combined eight hits and four runs.

AJ Reid and Michael Galanos tallied four hits each for Wabash.
