NEWARK, Del. -- Senior DH Chris Hopf (Middlesex, N.J.) slammed his team-best fourth home run of the season and junior righty Jonathan Gambone (Westville, N.J.) tossed a complete-game six hitter, but Caldwell baseball fell in a doubleheader at Wilmington, 11-1 and 2-1 at WU Sports Complex on Saturday.

In the opener, the Cougars (1-13, 0-9 CACC) scored in the sixth when junior center fielder Jimmy Turchi (Bridgewater, N.J.) drove in freshman RF Izaiah Robinson (Franklin Twp, N.J.), who had walked.

In game two, Hopf kept the Cougars' hopes alive with a two-out solo blast in the seventh. Gambone fanned two and scattered eight hits in the route-going, six-inning effort. 

The two teams complete the three-game series with a single game at Kiwanis Oval on Sunday at noon.
