FT. MYERS, Fla. - The Bluffton University baseball team (1-3) won their first contest of the 2005 season 10-7 over Anna Maria on March 8.

The Beavers first contest of the day was called due to rain. Bluffton won the second contest by forfeit (10-7) in the sixth inning due to a player ejection from Anna Maria's squad. Anna Maria came into the doubleheader with only nine total players on their team. In the sixth inning a batter was ejected giving A.M. only eight players for the remaining part of the contest.

Statistics for the contest and more information will be posted soon.

The Beavers have Wednesday off and will be back in action on Thursday, March 10. Bluffton will play New Jersey City University in a doubleheader starting at 12 noon.
