Dwight Lambert improved his record to 2-2 with a masterful one hitter against a CCAC Allegheny team that he dominated in a 2-1 loss earlier in the season. Lambert had his bid at a no hitter foiled in the fourth inning when James Shimko lofted a lazy single into right center field. Lambert has been dominating this fall. With an ERA of 1.54 and an opponent's batting average of .163 against, it would be difficult to find a right handed pitcher in the conference with better statistics.
