NEWS & NOTES

NEARING HISTORY

W&M is just one stolen base away from breaking the all-time single-season program record of 116 set in 1993. The Tribe tied the record in Saturday's win over Charleston, swiping three bags.

GRAND SIGHT
INF Jamie Laskofski added to his statline with a grand slam on Friday, bringing his RBI total to 32 for the season. Laskofski leads the CAA in runs (44) and triples (five) while also ranking second in hits (50) and slugging (.638).

DOWN BUT NEVER OUT
W&M posted yet another come-from-behind over the weekend, erasing a five-run deficit to beat Charleston 7-5 in game two of the series. It was the Tribe's ninth comeback win of the season and the 25th under second-year head coach Rob McCoy. It was also their fourth win this season trailing by 3+ runs.

CATCHERS WHO RAKE
Witt Scafidi ranks third among CAA catchers in batting average at .337. On Friday, the graduate backstop went 3-for-5 with two runs and a homer against Charleston.

LIFTED BY WEIGHT
RHP Jack Weight owns a team-best 3.48 ERA after registering four scoreless outings in his last five appearances. Since April 3, the sophomore has allowed one run over 11 ⅔ innings with a 2-0 record and a 13/3 strikeout-to-walk ratio.

GOING FOR THREE
On April 14 vs. Longwood, Jamie Laskofski hit a pair of triples in a 3-for-5 day. He became the sixth player in modern program history to hit two triples in a game and the first since Ryan Williams on April 7, 2012 against Delaware. Laskofski's five triples ranks sixth in Division I.

STAT NUGGETS
- The Tribe ranks seventh in the nation in stolen bases (116) and stolen bases per game (3.05).

- W&M leads the CAA in triples with 12, ranking 23rd nationally.

- OF Chase Ecker is 24-for-24 stealing on the basepaths this season, ranking fifth in the CAA and 27th in Division I.

PURE DOMINANCE
W&M's 13-1 win over Elon was its largest margin of victory on the season and its largest in a conference game since April 26, 2025 at Stony Brook (15-0). The Tribe's 16 hits is its most in a game this year, while the three hits allowed is tied for second-fewest.

WELCOME BACK, ZACK
RHP Zack Potts made his return to the mound on March 29 at UNCW, pitching a scoreless inning with a strikeout in his first start in over a year. Potts was named a top-65 starting pitcher by D1Baseball after a 2024 campaign that saw him post a 3.84 ERA while leading the CAA in BB/9 (1.79) and ranking second in K/BB ratio (4.36).

WALK-OFF WINNER
INF Trey Christman delivered a walk-off single in a thrilling 11-10 victory over N.C. A&T on March 22 to clinch a series sweep. The game saw 23 combined hits, five ties, and seven lead changes. INF Kevin Francella hit a game-tying home run in the ninth before Christman's heroics. It was the first time all season the Tribe won a game when trailing after eight innings.

NEED FOR SPEED
W&M broke another modern-era school record for stolen bases with 12 against N.C. A&T on March 22. The previous record was 10 steals set earlier this year against Georgetown (March 14). INF Jamie Laskofski shattered the individual record with five stolen bases. He was one of eight Tribe players to swipe a bag.

TWO-WAY MAN
RHP/INF Jett Humphreys was recognized as the CAA Rookie of the Week for March 23. Humphreys registered three scoreless appearances on the mound in a sweep of N.C. A&T, going 2-0 with 2 ⅔ innings pitched, four strikeouts, and one hit allowed. In the batter's box, the Abingdon, Va. native went 4-for-8 with a double and three RBI. He became the first Tribe pitcher to record a hit and earn the win in the same game multiple times since Jack Cone in 2022.

MILESTONE REACHED
INF Jamie Laskofski recorded his 100th career hit in the series at Georgetown. He became the second-fastest player in the modern era to accomplish the feat, doing it in just 72 games.

FRESHMEN LEAD THE WAY
Eight freshmen have thrown innings on the mound for the Tribe this season, the most in the CAA (Charleston is second with five). The freshman class has combined to throw nearly half of W&M's innings as a team.

JETT HAS ARRIVED
RHP/INF Jett Humphreys recorded his first career hit on March 13, going 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles. The two-way freshman went 3-for-10 with three doubles and three runs over the weekend. He also pitched a pair of scoreless innings at #14 Virginia (March 10).

BACK TO BACK
INF Matthew Kosuda earned back-to-back CAA Rookie of the Week honors (Feb. 23 and March 2). Kosuda batted .400 (4-for-10) with six runs scored and eight RBI in W&M's sweep of Lafayette. On Friday, Kosuda hit a game-tying three-run homer in the seventh inning to spark a comeback win over Lafayette as he collected four RBI.

DOUBLE TROUBLE
W&M swept the CAA weekly awards for Feb. 23 as INF Jamie Laskofski was named the CAA Player of the Week while INF Matthew Kosuda earned CAA Rookie of the Week honors.

CHOPPIN' EM DOWN
LHP Tom Bourque set a career-high in strikeouts (six) and innings pitched (4.0) in his start vs. Binghamton on Feb. 21. The redshirt junior shut out the Bearcats and allowed just one hit with no walks in the Tribe's 5-4 win.

TRIPLES ALLEY
The Tribe hit three triples in game one of the Feb. 21 doubleheader against Binghamton. It was the most triples in a game since slugging out four on Feb. 22, 2020 against Fairleigh Dickinson.

WELCOME INTRODUCTION
DH Liam O'Neil went yard in his first at-bat as a member of the Tribe, blasting a two-run homer in the second inning at Virginia Tech. He became the first Tribe player to hit a home run in his first AB with the team since Nic Britt did it on Feb. 28, 2021 at Charlotte.
