BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Fredonia scored all its run in three innings Thursday while downing D'Youville, 12-1, in non-conference college baseball.

Patrick Sheehan (West Seneca, N.Y.),
Alexio Medina (Marilla, N.Y.), and
Michael Prentice (West Seneca, N.Y.).
Fredonia batters combined for 14 hits. Sheehan, Medina,
