A six-run first inning in Saturday’s game that featured a grand slam for catcher Matt Donlan and a solo shot for shortstop Bryan Padilla set the tone, and a strong outing from righthander Pat Gallagher (6 IP, 6 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 7 K) made that lead hold up. On Sunday, the lineup really poured it on with 17 runs on 16 hits and eight walks issued by Xavier pitching. All nine starters for UConn had at least one hit, and seven different batters had at least two hits. Donlan, second baseman David Smith and left fielder Korey Morton all homered as well. The win Sunday sewed up the regular season title for UConn, which was a mere formality after its sweep of Creighton two weekends ago. The Huskies, who haven’t had a single losing weekend this season, will finish the regular season at Georgetown. <- [/QUOTE]
