BROOKVILLE, N.Y. — LIU's winning ways continued Sunday as the Sharks extended their current winning streak to seven with a 10-2 victory over Maryland Eastern Shore.
 
Starting pitcher Nicholas Finarelli struck out seven while tossing five innings, surrendering just two earned runs. Ryan Rivera excelled, leading LIU with three hits in a 3-for-4 performance. The junior drove in one run, but he certainly wasn't alone in propelling LIU's offense. Max Samson drove in two, scored two runs, and walked once as part of a 1-for 4 day, and Benjamin Fierenzi also scored twice and had a pair of RBI, marking his third straight game driving in a run.
 
Jack Power, Noah Sorensen, and Mason Breton all pitched in with 2-for-4 outings, driving in one run apiece as well for LIU.
 
While Finarelli set the tone on the mound to start the game, LIU had strong relief outings from RJ Latkowski, who struck out three and allowed no hits through three innings, and Evan Panjwani, who pitched a scoreless ninth inning.
 
LIU now owns an 18-3 record, including 12-3 at home.
 
The Sharks will return to the field on Wednesday, April 30, visiting Army at 4:30 p.m.
