Complete Game Notes vs. Northern Colorado and Colorado Mines

WEEKEND RECAP
Colorado Mesa swept the MSU Denver Roadrunners in a four-game series at Suplizio Field over the weekend. The Mavericks pitching staff struck out the Roadrunners 50 times in the series and limited them to a .198 batting average. The hitters posted a .302 average and a .547 slugging percentage in the four-game sweep.

RMAC PITCHER OF THE WEEK
Freshman JR McDermott was named the RMAC Pitcher of the Week after setting both Colorado Mesa and Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference records for strikeouts in a game with 19 in a win over MSU Denver last Friday evening. The Aurora native limited the Roadrunners to just three hits in the game and walked three.

COACHING
Head coach Chris Hanks won his 700th game for the Mavericks on February 19 in a 5-4 win over Cal Baptist. He has spent his entire 17 year coaching career at Colorado Mesa and has won 11 RMAC Championships and two NCAA Regional titles.

PROTECTING THE HOUSE
Suplizio Field has been very kind to the Mavericks for several seasons now. The Mavericks are 110-13 the past four seasons including the 27-5 record last season. They have not been shutout at home in 367 games dating back to the 2004 season (L 0-3 Western Oregon, Feb. 14).

RMAC TOURNAMENT IN 2015
Colorado Mesa claimed their second consecutive RMAC Tournament Championship, defeating MSU Denver 7-6 on a walk-off home run by Alex Fife. It is the the Mavericks 11th RMAC Tournament Championship, most by any school in the conference. 

REGIONAL TOURNAMENT
The Mavericks hosted the NCAA South Central Regional for the second straight season and went 1-2 in the tournament. The Mavericks fell to St. Mary's then went on to defeat St. Edward's before falling to eventual champion Angelo State.

ON DECK
Colorado Mesa will hit the road for a four-game series down in Las Vegas, N.M. against the New Mexico Highlands Cowboys before returning home.
