At the plate, Wilson and Eoff, along with Ross Oram and Ryan Burrows, led the charge that put up 15 runs on 12 hits. Eoff was 2-for-2 with a home run, a double and four RBIs. Wilson went 2-for-2 with a home run and Oram was 2-for-2 as well with a home run and three RBIs. Burrows was 2-for-2 with a double and two runs driven in.
The Hawks’ dominating performance established a 1-0 overall and HDC Conference mark.
