Jay Zehring ’14 (Manassas, VA/Stonewall Jackson) was a force to be reckoned with on the diamond in a dominating 3-1 week for Arcadia Baseball that included the program’s first Commonwealth Conference sweep over Lebanon Valley and the team’s tenth win of the season. The Knights currently sit by themselves in third place in the Commonwealth standings and are enjoying their best season since the 2009-10 campaign.
The first baseman batted a team-leading .545 going 6-11 at the dish, including his first and the team’s first home run of the season. Zehring contributed 5 runs and was walked 3 times through four starts.
He paced the Knights on Saturday at Elizabethtown, going 3-3 with a run scored in the opener and used a fifth inning solo homerun to give Arcadia an early 1-0 advantage in the nightcap finishing 2-3 with 2 runs scored.
Sporting a .346 batting average, good for third on the squad, and in the Top 20 in the Commonwealth, Zehring is second on the ballclub in hits (23), tied for second in RBI (15) and fourth in runs scored (11).
