HARROGATE, TN- The Bloomsburg University baseball team dropped a pair of games to Lincoln Memorial University on Saturday afternoon. The Huskies lost 6-0 in game one, and 6-1 in game two.

In game one the Huskies struggled offensively as Lincoln Memorial's Kyle Wakefield held the Huskies to just six hits over seven innings. Kevin Ward (Upper Darby/ Monsignor Bonner) led the Huskies going 2-3.
