MEQUON, Wis. – The Falcons started their NACC season play with a doubleheader against the Edgewood College Eagles at Kapco Park Friday afternoon. The Eagles took the series with 6-5 and 12-4 victories.
Concordia opened up the scoring at the bottom of the second inning of game one with a home run by senior Tristan Largent (Verona, Wis.) over the right-field fence that also scored senior Kyle Kosobucki (De Pere, Wis.).
The third inning saw lots of action from both teams, as Edgewood brought home one run to make it 2-1, but the Falcons increased their lead with a double to right field by senior Drew Johnson (Menasha, Wis.) to score senior Johannes Haakenson (Janesville, Wis.). Kosobucki reached first on a fielding error by the Edgewood first baseman that led Drew Johnson to score. Junior Josh Bentley (Lockport, Ill.) rounded out the bottom of the third inning with a double to center field, allowing Kosobucki to score, bringing the score up to 5-1 for Concordia.
Edgewood would go on to score a total of five more runs, with two in the fourth inning, one at the top of the eighth, and eventually two at the top of the nine to close the first of the two-game contest.
