Colgate scored its single tally in the sixth when Hick's drive went between Ayres's legs. Hicks went to third when Waterman threw wild after Robinson had dropped a pretty bunt in front of the plate. McLoughlin hit an easy one to Frye who threw to Clark at second catching Robinson. Hicks scored on the play. A beautiful double play, Frye to Wingate to Ayres, broke up the inning...
