Pennsylvania College of Technology spring sports teams went 3-2 last week, but the real winner was Mother Nature, which forced postponement of nine scheduled events.



Baseball
In a Wednesday home doubleheader sweep of Summit University by identical 13-1 scores, the Wildcats pounded out 25 hits and limited the visitors to just six. In the first game, Taylor Vandergrift, of Quakertown, who had a triple, and Cole Weachock, of Pottsville, who had a double, each drove in three runs. Weachock and Noah Esposito, of Williamsport, both had three hits in the win. In the second game, Ed Suri, of East Hanover, New Jersey, drove in three runs and Vandergrift again tripled while pitcher Aaron Palmer, of Hanover, improved to 3-0 and the team to 8-11.

Games scheduled for Thursday and Saturday were postponed.

The Lady Wildcats started the week on April 3 with a pair of postponements as snow covered the field at SUNY Cobleskill. It ended the same way with postponements against Morrisville State on Saturday.
