Shoup Continues Hot Streak In Doubleheader Split Over NNU - The combination of Aaron Shoup and Mickey Walker continued to prove to be fatal for batters, as the two combined for a 10-strikeout, one run gem. Austin Feist delivered with a home run and RBI single to power the Saints' bats in the 3-1 victory before Northwest Nazarene responded with an 8-0 win in game two.
 
Shoup defended his home mound once again, this time going eight strong innings, allowing only one run on three hits. The senior punched out seven Nighthawks and improved to 2-2 on the season. Walker was called in to face the ninth inning, and the Nighthawks were unable to even put a barrel to the ball. Walker struck out all three batters for his third save of the season. Feist collected two hits, including a home run in the second and the insurance RBI in the seventh to lift SMU to a 3-1 win. The Nighthawks managed to salvage a split with an 8-0 win in game two, with five runs coming in the final inning.
 
Saints Polish Off Nighthawks With Doubleheader Sweep - The Saints needed two wins to stay in the middle of the race for the GNAC tournament, and using great pitching and timely hitting, SMU took both off of Northwest Nazarene, 5-4 and 7-1, to end the series.
 
Taking three out of four against the Nighthawks on the Saints' home field was a must needed accomplishment if the Saints wanted to stay in the hunt for a GNAC tournament appearance. Clark Streby and Benjamin Wadowski got the job done on the mound, including Wadowski's nearly complete game, one run gem. Mickey Walker and Ryan Dorney were called in from the bullpen to help close down the wins and secure the series for SMU.
 
Micah McNicoll Named GNAC Hitter of the Week - Micah McNicoll's bat refused to cool off in the cold Idaho weather, and instead heated up for seven hits, highlighted by a two-run home run, and four RBIs, as he was named the GNAC Hitter of the Week. McNicoll began the weekend with a hit and a walk in the opening game of the five game series with College of Idaho. In the second game, he reached base on a walk and later scored in the inning. After sitting out the third game, he returned to the lineup with force. The junior went 2-for-4, both hits doubles, with two runs scored to help the Saints to a 3-2 victory. In the series finale, McNicoll put it all together, going 4-for-5, capped-off by his two-run home run in the second inning. He finished the game with four RBIs and two more runs scored.
 
Tanner Inouye Named GNAC Pitcher of the Week - Tanner Inouye started the 2019 season off with a bang, throwing 5.2 innings, picking up the win, and also his first GNAC Pitcher of the Week award this season. Inouye went 5.2 innings against Dixie State on Sunday, earning the first win of the year for the Saints. During the start, Inouye did allow three runs on the board; however, all the runs were unearned. He punched out three Trailblazers and left five runners on base, including working out of a bases loaded jam in the fourth inning. The award marks the first of the season for Inouye and his second in his career.
 
Three Strikes You're Out – The Saints' pitching staff has turned into the best strike out rotation in the GNAC. In 168 innings pitched, Saint Martin's has punched out 173 batters, led by the GNAC leaders Aaron Shoup (28) and Tanner Inouye (31). Clark Streby and Mickey Walker has also added to the impressive mark, striking out 48 combined.
 
Lock Down Bullpen – Over the course of the season, one major weapon have been the arms at the back end of the bullpen. Ryan Dorney has posted perfect 0.00 ERAs over 13.0 innings, including 17 strikeouts and a microscopic 0.92 WHIP. Mickey Walker leads the team with three saves and has punching people out. Over 13.1 innings, Walker has 25 strikeouts.
 
Bats In The Infield – Making up a majority of the Saints' at-bats in the infield has been Dakota Hill, Aaron Renaud, Isaac Hegamin, Ryne Oshiro, and Micah McNicoll. The five have combined for an impressive .294 batting average, with 35 RBIs and 32 runs scored, giving SMU one of the top offensive infields in the GNAC.
 
Saints Take The Series – Playing at home against Northwest Nazarene, Saint Martin's managed a split on the opening doubleheader before sweeping the final day of action. The series win marked the first GNAC series win for SMU since Northwest Nazarene back in April, 2017.
 
Saints Picked Sixth In Preseason Poll - Led by All-Conference outfielder Austin Feist and shortstop Ryne Oshiro, along with a veteran pitching staff, the Saints' baseball team was selected sixth in the GNAC Preseason Poll on Wednesday. The Saints enter the season after an 11-37 campaign last year; however, despite the record, proved to show many bright spots for the future.
 
Season Preview - Feist, named to the first team All-Conference, sits in the middle of the lineup with a .320 batting average, .390 on-base percentage, and .511 slugging percentage. The senior led the team last year in home runs (6), RBI (30), total bases (91), and OPS (.901).
 
Looking to back up his stellar freshman season, Oshiro provides pop up the middle of the infield with his team leading .328 batting average. Along with the batting average, Oshiro collected 57 hits, tied for the team lead, three home runs, and 19 RBIs. The freshman was selected as a second team All-Conference shortstop.
 
Some other notable returners in the offense include outfielder Colton Peha and infielder Micah NcNicoll. Peha hit for a .258 average, and McNicoll finished with a .234 mark, while both hit two home runs and 16 RBIs.
 
On the pitching side, the Saints return nine pitchers, including six seniors. Mickey Walker, Ryan Dorney, Luke Hare, Clark Streby, Robbie Shineman, and Aaron Shoup add veteran leadership to the staff. Streby led the team in wins (4), strikeouts (50), innings pitched (56.2) and games started (11). The Saints will also look to junior Tanner Inouye after his All-Conference season. In nine starts, Inouye accomplished three quality starts, including a complete game, one run, seven strikeout gem against Northwest Nazarene.
