On a day where John Carroll seemingly had nothing to play for, the Blue Streaks still managed to make history.
With a split against host Wilmington on Sunday -- 9-7 win in game one, followed by a 9-7 loss in game two -- JCU managed to tie a program record for most victories in a single season.

Pacyga and Tim O'Brien also homered in the first game.
Joe Bossard earned the game one win, while Michael Eden earned his sixth save. The win was JCU's 25th of the year, matching the 25 wins posted by the 1998 team that set the school record.
