Wesleyan barely beat Galloway the last time the pair played, but that sure wasn't the case this time around. The Wolves put the hurt on the Scots with a sharp 12-0 victory on Wednesday. Considering the Wolves have won six games by more than seven runs this season, Wednesday's blowout was nothing new.

Noah Beckman tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out six over five innings pitched. Those six strikeouts gave him a new career-high.

At the plate, Wesleyan got a massive performance out of Grayson McCollum, who went 1-for-2 with one home run, two stolen bases, and four RBI. Carter Hayes was another key player, going 2-for-3 with four RBI, one triple, and one run.

Wesleyan lost a few balls and finished the game with three home runs. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Galloway didn't launched any home runs.

The win (which was Wesleyan's fourth in a row) raised their record to 12-5. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 0.8 runs on average over those games. As for Galloway, they are on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-9.

Looking ahead, Wesleyan will challenge Mount Vernon at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. As for Galloway, they will square off against Fellowship Christian at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday. The Scots' pitchers better be ready for this one: the Paladins have averaged an impressive 6.4 runs per game this season.
