WAPPINGERS, N.Y. (NJCUGothicKnights.com) | Senior center fielder Nick Ruscingno (Teaneck, N.J./Teaneck) set a single-game school record for hits, batting 6-for-6 with five RBIs and three runs and New Jersey City University baseball team equaled its highest-scoring inning in known history, scoring 12 in the eighth inning, as the Gothic Knights rolled past Mount Saint Mary College (NY), 21-9, on March 30 at Dutchess Stadium.
 
NJCU won its fourth straight game to even its record at 5-5 heading into the start of New Jersey Athletic Conference play this weekend. Clutching a 9-6 lead after seven innings, NJCU sent 17 men to the plate and scored 10 consecutive runs without an out being recorded.
 
Ruscingno's six hits eclipsed the record of five hits set in 1949 and equaled on at least four occasions since then. A very patient freshman left fielder Bill Feehan (Point Pleasant, N.J./Point Pleasant Boro), the 2-time NJAC Rookie Player of the Week, equaled a school record with four walks. NJCU's 12-run eighth matches the record set in 2004 and equaled in 2015.
