MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. - There was no shortage of offense as Hood and Arcadia combined for 58 runs over the course of their Commonwealth Conference doubleheader at the Ripken Experience in Myrtle Beach.

Unfortunately for the Blazers, they were outslugged by the Knights in both ends of the twinbill. Arcadia captured game one by a final score of 27-13, then picked up the sweep with a 14-4 final in the nightcap.
