NORTON, Mass. (3/20/2025) – The Nichols College baseball team dropped a non-conference match-up with Wheaton College on Thursday afternoon from James V. Sidell Stadium. The Bison lost 15-7 to the Lyons.

Junior Liam Flynn went 3-4 on the day with a two-run home run, two doubles and a walk. Senior Karl Miller chipped in with a 3-5 effort with a two-run home run for the Bison.

Senior Ben Jerome stole his third base of the season, which set a new program record for career stolen bases (62). Jerome passed Cale Lacasse, who set the record in 2010 with 61 stolen bases. 

The Lyons opened the scoring with a two-run home run in the bottom of the first and tacked on a run in the second and third inning as well for a 4-0 lead after three innings of work.

In the fifth inning, the Bison broke the Wheaton shutout with a pair of runs in the top of the fifth. Senior Stanley Cipkas reached first with a walk and then scored on a single from teammate Jacob Tipton. Senior Luis Vargas then singled, scoring Tipton to make it 4-2 Lyons, headed to the bottom of the fifth.

Wheaton blew the game wide open with a crooked number in the bottom half of the inning and extended the lead to 13-2.

The Bison added more runs in the sixth inning. Flynn opened the inning with his second double, and Miller belted a home run, making it 13-4.
