NEWS & NOTES

SENIOR SENDOFF

W&M sent its seniors out with a win on Sunday, beating Towson 14-6. OF Charlie Iriotakis headlined the victory with a career-high six RBI, going 3-for-5 with a three-run homer. It was the first six-RBI game by a Tribe player since Joe Delossantos did it on May 4, 2024 vs. Elon.

ON-BASE GUY
OF Louie Bartletti is on a tear over the past month, riding a 21-game on-base streak and 11-game hitting streak. Since April 7, Bartletti is slashing .465/.553/.817 with 26 runs, six homers, 21 RBI, and 12 stolen bases.

30 BAGS
INF Jamie Laskofski joined an exclusive club with his 30th stolen base of the season against George Mason. The Tribe shortstop became the third player in program history to accomplish the feat, joining Chris Rahl (2004) and Shawn Knight (1993).

ROOKIE RECORD
OF Chase Ecker is also closing in on basestealing history, needing just one swipe to break the W&M freshman record of 27 set by Rick Schwartzman in 1975. Ecker has been perfect on the basepaths this season and would be the only player in program history to go an entire year without a caught stealing (min. 20 attempts).

UP FOR A CHALLENGE
History was made the last time the Tribe visited Jack Coombs Field. On April 9, 2024, W&M beat No. 6 Duke 4-2 for its highest-ranked win in program history. The Tribe has won three of the past seven matchups in the series, with victories coming in 2022 and 2011.

DOWN BUT NEVER OUT

GOING FOR THREE
On April 14 vs. Longwood, INF 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 six triples ranks fourth 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 three hits allowed is tied for its second-fewest in a game this year.

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.

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.

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

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.
