Shenandoah righthander Brian Goddard shut out Bridgewater College for the first five innings Thursday to help lead the Hornets to an 8-4 non-conference victory.

Goddard allowed just two hits, both in the fifth inning, and picked up the victory.

The Hornets broke up a scoreless tie with three runs in the fourth off of BC starter Casey Hartman.

Scott Lambert walked to open the fourth inning and Jesse Henry followed with a single. The Eagles then misplayed Greg Van Sickler's bunt to load the sacks. Lambert scored on a double-play grounder and Henry scored on a single by Corey Nelson, making the score 2-0. Josh Simons doubled home Nelson for a 3-0 Shenandoah lead.

The Hornets broke the game open with four more runs in the sixth. Scott Van Dusseldorp, Simons and Sean Plouffe had RBI hits for the Hornets in the inning.

The Eagles broke up the shutout in the eighth when Andy Chrismer belted a two-run homer to right-center.

The Eagles are now 2-4 on the season while Shenandoah improves to 10-1.
