Justin Branock went 4 for 6 on the day to help lead the Huntington University baseball team to a doubleheader sweep of visiting Marian College, 10-1 and 6-4, on Saturday, April 4.

Branock had a home run and double in the opener and Eric Randel allowed one run on just three hits in a complete game victory to lead the Foresters to victory. Branock came back with two more hits and two RBI in the nitecap and Will Barone picked up the win in relief in the 6-4 decision.

The Foresters, 16-11 on the season and 9-3 in the Mid-Central College Conference, got three RBI from Travis Frantz in the opener.

Barone came on in relief of starter Anthony Roth to earn the win with an inning and one-third of work. Frantz relieved Barone with two outs in the sixth to pick up a save.

HU took command of the first game with a five-run third inning.
