The Lourdes university baseball team dropped both ends of a non-conference doubleheader against Concordia on Saturday afternoon at Cardinal Field.
 
In game one, Concordia (24-13) scored the first run of the game in the bottom half of the third frame to take a 1-0 lead.
 
The Gray Wolves would draw even with the Cardinals in the top of the fourth inning as Cameron Gallo (Mason, Ohio/Bishop Fenwick) stole second and forced a throw from the catcher, allowing Michael Davis (Whittier, Calif./California) to steal home and knot the game at 1-1.
 
Concordia opened the contest up in the fifth inning, scoring four runs to claim a late 5-1 lead. Gallo would hit a solo home run in the sixth inning, cutting the lead to 5-2, but an insurance run from the Cardinals in the sixth sealed the 6-2 victory.
 
Gallo finished 1-for-2 offensively for Lourdes, while Brad Ammons (Holland, Ohio/Springfield) recorded the only other hit for the Gray Wolf offense.
 
In the second contest, Lourdes once again found itself playing from behind as Concordia scored three runs in the bottom of the first.
 
Lourdes would answer in the top of the second inning with a run as Noah Childress (Toledo, Ohio/Start) singled Joey Oehlers (Lambertville, Mich./Bedford) home to cut the lead to 3-1.
 
Concordia took control in the bottom half of the inning, adding four more runs to stretch the lead to 7-1 through two innings.
 
After a scoreless third inning, the Lourdes offense found life, beginning with a Childress two-RBI double to cut the lead to 7-3 in the fourth inning. On the ensuing at-bat, Kevin Suttles (Monroe, Mich./Monroe) cleared the bases with a homerun to pull Lourdes within 7-5.
 
Concordia would once again stretch the lead, tallying three runs in the fourth and sixth innings to push the lead to 10-5. A Corey Righman (Ashville, Ohio/Teays Valley) triple to lead off the seventh inning was followed by a sacrifice fly from Davis to plate the run, but Lourdes couldn't get any closer as Concordia held on for the 10-6 victory.
 
Righman led the way offensively, going 3-for-4 with a run scored. Childress finished 2-for-3 with three RBI and a run.
 
Lourdes (12-17) is back in action on Monday when it travels to Siena Heights for a single game at 6 p.m. at the SHU Baseball Diamond.
