The Wright State baseball team took both sides of the doubleheader over Youngstown State on Saturday, wining the opener 2-1 before a 14-5 victory in the nightcap.
 
The Raiders (7-5, 7-0 Horizon) now look to complete the weekend sweep over Youngstown State (5-10, 3-4 HL) on Sunday afternoon. First pitch is scheduled for 1 p.m. from The Nisch.
 
The opening game of the day was a true pitchers' duel, with the teams combining for six hits. Youngstown State got on the board first with a solo homer in the top of the fifth for its first hit of the afternoon, but the Raiders battled back in the sixth. After Quincy Hamilton was hit by a pitch and Tyler Black singled, Sammy Sass delivered a two-out, two-run single into right to plate both runners in what turned out to be the difference in the game.
 
Bradley Brehmer earned the win for the Raiders on the mound, allowing just two hits and the one run with six strikeouts in the complete game effort. In addition to the hits from Black and Sass, Wright State also had hits from Gehrig Anglin (double in the second) and Jay Luikart (single later in the sixth).
 
Collin Floyd was saddled with the loss for Youngstown State, allowing two runs on four hits with three walks and six strikeouts over 5.2 innings of work. Padrig O'Shaughnessy had one of the two Penguin hits, the solo homer in the fifth.
 
The second game of the afternoon was the exact opposite of game one, with the Raiders tallying three homers on the way to the big win. Already leading by two in the third, Hamilton connected on a solo homer down the right field line in the third before delivering a three-run double down the line in the fourth to break the game open.

Wright State tacked on to the lead in the fifth on Konner Piotto's two-run homer before an RBI double in the sixth from Zane Harris. A Luikart solo homer in the seventh and a two-run double from Sass in the eighth wrapped up the Raider scoring.
 
The Raiders finished with 10 hits in game two, including two apiece from Hamilton, Black, Sass and Luikart, while Hamilton's four RBI paced the offense. Sam Wirsing earned the win after 4.1 innings of relief out of the bullpen, allowing three runs with three strikeouts. Starter Alex Theis struck out three batters of his own, allowing two runs and four hits in the opening 3.2 innings.
 
Nick Perez allowed six runs (four earned) over the first three innings on the way to the loss, while Turner Grau had two hits and three RBI for Youngstown State.
