Vassar will look to snap a four-game losing streak this afternoon, as the Brewers hosts Western Connecticut State University for a pair of non-conference tussles from Prentiss Field this afternoon. VC fell in its lone game Saturday afternoon, as Brewer alum Kristaps Aldins and his Stevens Institute of Technology squad came away with an 11-3 win over Vassar. Looking at the standings, Vassar still sits in fourth place in the Liberty League going into the final 12 huge conference contests starting next weekend. Junior Mike Koscielniak extended his hitting streak to seven games on Saturday, which is the longest streak for a Brewer hitter this season. Nick Johnson leads the squad with a .372 batting average among qualifiers, while Koscielniak is has gone 10-for-23 in his at bats this season, hitting .435. Cory Wuenschell is VC’s only other batter hitting over .300 this season, as he leads the squad with 17 RBI.

A Look at the COLONIALS Western Connecticut State comes to town this afternoon after playing a pair of contests at Southern Maine yesterday, splitting the Little East doubleheader with the Huskies 4-3 in the first game, falling 3-2 in the nightcap. WCSU trailed 1-0 going into the ninth inning of the opening game Saturday, but tallied four times to hold the lead for good. Craig Frobel went eight innings allowing three runs (one earned) on seven hits and one walk while striking out seven to improve his record to 3-1. On the season Western Connecticut is now 10-11 and 3-3 within its conference, as senior Chris Callahan leads the offense with a .479 batting average, posting six doubles, three triples and a home. Frank Vartuli has a team-best 25 RBI this season, while John Kelly is also hitting .359 in 2016. Junior EJ Lavoie has a team-best seven doubles, scoring a Colonial best 22 runs.

Vassar vs. WCSU

Previous Contests 2005 - Vassar 8, WCSU 3 The Brewers are 2-3 all-time against the Colo2004 - WCSU 9, Vassar 8 nials, having not played Western Connecticut 2003 - Vassar 9, WCSU 8 State since the 2005 season. During that season, VC earned an 8-3 win. These are only 2002 - WCSU 14, Vassar 3 2001 - WCSU 15, Vassar 14 the second and third games all-time at VC.

Brewer Bio on . . . DAKOTA SAGNELLI Dakota Sagnelli, from Rumson, New Jersey, has become one of the top defensive catchers in all of the region. Run on Sagnelli at your own risk, as the senior backstop has a strong arm but his quick release is what makes him so difficult to steal bases against. Also, Sagnelli keeps runners on all bases in check, as he’s not one to shy away from trying to back-pick runners at either first or second base. So far this season, Sagnelli has gunned down 10 attempted base stealers while picking off a runner at first base as well against Skidmore. With the bat, Sagnelli is hitting .250 with 11 hits in 44 at-bats this season, doubling twice while driving in six runners. He has done a nice job at getting on base, posting a .393 on-base percentage. This season, the senior has a pair of multi-hit games, both wins for Vassar over Plattsburgh State and Clarkson University.
