ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. - The Warner Southern College Royals and the Flagler College Saints split a Florida Sun Conference doubleheader Saturday afternoon at Flagler Stadium. The Royals took the opener 9-4 and the Saints salvaged the split with a 2-0 victory.

In the first game, Mark Davis' two-run single in the fourth helped give Warner Southern a 4-0 lead while Victor Joaquin's RBI-single in the same inning proved to be the game winner for the Royals. Cassidy Turner added another RBI single in the frame to give Warner Southern a comfortable 6-0 lead through five innings. WSC would score two more in the sixth and one in the seventh to lead 9-0 going into the home half of the seventh.

Charles Sharman came on in relief of starter Rene Ramirez and walked the first and only two batters he faced. Jeremy Barrett followed and he uncorked a wild pitch to move the runners to second and third. Kris King (Youngstown, Ohio/Santa Fe CC) also drew a walk to load the bases. Another wild pitch allowed Kenny Bargfeldt (Fishers, Ind./Ball State U.) to score and Preston Picard (Detroit, Mich./Madonna U.) to advance to third. King later stole second to put two runners in scoring position. Bryan Harrell (Granger, Ind./Lincoln Trail College) grounded out to second base to advance the runners a base, scoring Picard. Shane Darnofall (Corry, Pa./Hillsborough CC) doubled home King to draw Flagler closer, 9-3. Zach Rossetti (Tequesta, Fla./Jupiter HS) singled home courtesy runner Reno DiCarlantonio (Wellington, Fla./Cardinal Newman HS) to make the score 9-4. Barrett settled down and retired the next two hitters to preserve the win for Warner Southern.

Ramirez (1-0) allowed only three hits in six scoreless innings pitched to earn the win. Wes Lowry collected three singles while Davis singled, homered and drove in five runs. Ron Matheny singled twice as did Turner.

Austin Donmoyer (Pine Grove, Pa./Pine Grove Area HS) (1-1) went 4.2 innings, scattering nine hits and only allowing two earned runs. Picard singled, doubled and scored a run while Darnofall also singled and doubled, but drove in a run.

In game two, Flagler's Wes Burgess (St. Augustine, Fla./Bartram Trail HS) (2-2) tossed a four-hit complete game shutout, tossing only 62 pitches in earning the win. He faced four batters over the minimum and retired the last seven he faced in order. Burgess never got into a three-ball count on any batter. He got into 2-2 counts twice, and both times he fanned the hitter.

Ben Floyd (Port St. Lucie, Fla./Brevard CC) provided al the offense Flagler (10-9; 2-2 Florida Sun) would need when he grounded out to second, scoring Randy Miller (Jacksonville, Fla./Florida CC-Jacksonville) from third base in the second inning. Mike Scott (Jacksonville, Fla./The Bolles School) hit a chopper that eluded Warner Southern's third baseman which allowed Picard to score from third with the insurance run.

Scott went 3-for-3 with an RBI while Bryan Crouch (Jacksonville, Fla./Arlington Country Day) and Miller both collected a pair of singles.

Four different Warner Southern (10-8, 5-1) batters singled in the game. Daniel Fantini (1-2) took the loss after allowing nine hits and two runs. He did strike out five on the day.
