Every Fisher College batter recorded a hit as they took game one of the double-header against Briarcliffe College by a 9-1 final.
The Falcon offense came alive in the third and fifth innings. They were able to plate three runners in the third thanks to a RBI single from Gary Lunetta (North Andover, MA) and a 2 RBI single from Sunrise Conference Baseball Player of the Week, Davidson Peguero (Boston, MA).
Fisher (7-21) plated four more runs in the fifth inning, including a 2 RBI double from freshman Victor Lebron (Union City, NJ). Sophomore Sammy Alejandro (East Hartford, CT) laced a two out base hit up the middle to plate the other two runs in the inning.
Senior Mike Oliveira (Tewksbury, MA) was able to come across on a passed ball while classmate Reynaldo Nunez (Santiago, Dominican Republic) scored Lunetta with a Sacrifice Fly, all in the sixth to give Fisher a 9-1 lead.
An eight run lead is all that junior Mike Hashem (North Andover, MA) would need as the power lefty earned his first win of the season. He tossed a complete game allowing Briarcliffe to score just one run on two hits while walking four and striking out five.
Hashem, now 1-2 in 2011, lowered his ERA from 4.05 to 3.57 as he allowed just one earned run in seven innings.
Both Lunetta and Nunez finished the game going 2-for-3 a piece while Peguero, Lebron and Alejandro each knocked in a pair of runs.

In what was a pitcher's duel, the Fisher College Falcons came up on the short end as they lost game two of the double-header, 1-0.
Senior Kevin Micheal (Ipswich, MA) pitched a complete game (6 IP) allowing Briarcliffe to score just one run on three hits while striking out six and issuing just one walk.
Fisher was able to muster just four hits off of Braircliffe starter Rick Dohit. Sophomore Steven Clark (Haverhill, MA) went 2-for-3 while freshman Brett Remon (Salem, MA) and junior Gary Lunetta (North Andover, MA) each had a hit.
Fisher (7-21/3-1) will return to action this weekend as they host Sunrise Conference opponent the University of Maine-Presque Isle. Saturday's games will begin at 3pm inside of the beautiful Fraser Field in Lynn, MA.
