Garden City, N.Y. – The Adelphi baseball team welcomed Pace to the friendly confines of William J. Bonomo Field on Tuesday afternoon for a standalone matchup.

Series History:

• Adelphi (11-11, 7-6 NE10) is now 33-23 against Pace since March 2005.
• The last meeting between the foes was a 3-2 Setter win in Garden City on March 16, 2025. John Carver went eight strong in that game, striking out eight, and Joe Pellegrino homered.

Highlights:

• Johnny Catuosco picked up Adelphi's only RBIs of the game on a single in the second inning.
• Bryan McCleary was 2-for-4 as the team's cleanup hitter.
• The Panther bullpen trio of Joseph Tagliavia, Will Celentano and Colin Richardson was solid, allowing only one earned run and striking out two in 4.2 innings of relief.

How It Happened:

• Pace got on the board first, scoring one in the second inning after a pair of two-out hits.
• In the bottom half, the Panthers responded. With Anthony Rigogliosi and Zach DeMilt on second and third (via a hit-by-pitch, fielder's choice and stolen base), Catuosco delivered a seeing-eye single to second base, scoring Rigogliosi and bringing home DeMilt to make it 2-1.
• After a scoreless third, the Setters tied the game at two with a solo home run.
• Pace took control in the fifth, scoring three runs on a pair of singles, a double and a triple.
• In the sixth, Pace threatened again with runners in scoring position and one out, but Celentano entered and recorded two quick outs to escape trouble.
• The Setter pitching staff shut down Adelphi over the final three innings. Pace added two more runs in the eighth en route to a 7-2 win.

Up Next:

• Head coach Mike Gaffney and the Adelphi baseball team returns to the field on Friday at 12 p.m. to host Franklin Pierce in the first of two doubleheaders.
