Poets split doubleheader, start season 1-2

With the completion of the Super Bowl marks the beginning to yet another baseball season. The Whittier College Men’s Baseball team looks to rebound from a 16-23, 8-20 SCIAC, 2011 season in which they finished seventh and failed to make the playoffs. Their dreams of playing in the SCIAC tournament started on Friday, Feb. 3 against Chapman in which they played much like they did last season, losing 10-4.

The high-powered Chapman offense scored 5 runs in the third inning and never looked back as their relief pitchers junior Brian Rauh and senior Ben Levitt threw nine innings of solid baseball and limited the Poet bats to only two extra base hits.
The Poets looked to bounce back the opening day loss to the Panthers on Saturday, Feb. 4 in a doubleheader against Chapman.
