FORT MYERS, Fla. – Connor Hilburn (Jr.-Rancho Santo Margarita, Calif.) finished with four hits and accounted for much of his team's run production but the Lakeland University baseball team lost both ends of a doubleheader with Skidmore (N.Y.) College Wednesday at the Gene Cusic Collegiate Games.

The Thoroughbreds won the first game by a 10-2 score and then came back with a 9-2 win in the second part of the twinbill. The Muskies slipped to 0-5 on the season and on their spring break trip to Florida.

Hilburn had his best day of the young season, going 4-for-5 over the two contests. The junior doubled twice and drove in three runs, including a pair of run-scoring hits to drive in both runs in the second game.

Alberto Oliveras (So.-Fort Myers, Fla.) also added three hits on the day plus two runs scored. Lakeland received contributions from a number of players at the plate, with eight different players finishing with at least one hit on the day.

Chase Grasso (Fr.-McHenry, Ill.) also added an RBI single in the second inning of the first game that gave the Muskies a 1-0 lead. Hilburn's double to drive in Oliveras in the third put Lakeland back ahead 2-1, but Skidmore came back with three in the fourth and added four more in the sixth.

The Muskies had a tough day in the field with four errors in each game which led to six unearned runs in each game. Collin Schutz (So.-Saint Amant, La.) took the loss in the first game, allowing three hits and four runs (three earned) in three-plus innings, while Noah Suissa (So.-Belmont, Calif.) pitched 1 1/3 and allowed one hit and four runs (one earned) with two strikeouts and five walks in the second game.

The Muskies continue their busy schedule on Thursday when they face Bethel (Minn.) University at 11 a.m. Central time, Noon Eastern in Florida.
