STANDISH, ME – Saint Joseph's (24-11, 11-2 GNAC) righthander Tyler Laverriere (Biddeford, ME) tossed five hitless innings and struck out 10 in a rain-shortened 14-0 Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) victory over Norwich University (0-24, 0-11 GNAC) on Saturday morning at Larry Mahaney Diamond.

The Monks recorded 17 hits with 12 different players recording at least one base knock in the lopsided victory. Senior catcher Ian Lee (Hampden, ME), hitting .539 (7-13) over the last five games, went 3-3 with two doubles, two runs and an RBI and   freshman left fielder Alex Markakis (Lynnfield, MA) was 2-3 with a double, a run scored and two RBI on the day.

Chris Campbell '11 (Rochester, NH) was 2-2 with a run, Dan Achorn '12 (Bow, NH) scored twice and had two hits in three at bats and Cody Hadley '14 (Norway, ME) tripled and added two runs and two RBI coming off the bench.

Laverriere, who threw just 50 pitches in the win, improved to 3-1 with the victory. His strikeout total is a new career high. Matt Vasil '05 hurled the Monks' last no-hitter with 11 K's in a 13-0 win over Maine-Presque Isle at Mahaney Diamond on April 15th, 2005.

Norwich starter Alexandro Cardoza '13 (Cicero, IL) allowed eight earned runs and fell to 0-3 on the year with the losing decision.

Mike Pratt '13 (Dartmouth, MA) plated Campbell with an infield single in the bottom of the first and the Monks scored three in the second to take a 4-0 lead.

St. Joe's went on to add two more runs in the third before breaking out with eight runs off six hits in the fourth to secure a 14-0 cushion. Freshman designated hitter Alex Lorenc (Nanuet, NY) belted a two-run double and Hadley drove in two with a triple to deep center during the offensive outburst.

The Monks' seven seniors – Campbell, Lee, Kevin Chamberlain (Scarborough, ME), Chris Dion (Lawrence, MA), Todd Keneborus (Hollis Center, ME/Cheverus), Mason Roberge (Franklin, NH) and Student Assistant Travis Probasco – were honored with a brief Senior Day ceremony immediately following the game. The group has helped St. Joe's post a 118-55 (.682) record, including an astounding 43-12 (.782) mark in GNAC play, since the start of the 2008 season with two conference crowns and a pair of NCAA Tournament appearances.

With the win, St. Joe's improves to 7-0 in the history of the series with Norwich University.

Saint Joseph's will travel to Gordon College on Monday for a single nine-inning game starting at 2:00 PM.
