BEL AIR, Md. - Another relentless attack at the plate led the No. 18 Harford baseball team to a doubleheader sweep of Allegany to move to 33-7 overall and 20-2 in the MD JUCO conference on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.
 
The Fighting Owls hit five home runs in game one led by John Mastrangelo who hit three, including a walk-off two-run shot to give Harford a 15-5 victory. Harford used a balanced, 11 hit attack to cruise to an 11-0 win in game two. Four pitchers combined to pitch five innings in the fifth shutout of the season for the staff.
 
Harford 15, Allegany 5
Three home runs in a game for a single player is a rare occurrence in baseball but Harford has had a player do it in back-to-back games. Jack Hamner accomplished the fete Thursday against CCBC Catonsville and Mastrangelo matched him Saturday afternoon against Allegany. It was his third multi-homer game of the season. The freshman slugger extended his single-season school record to 14, ninth best in the nation.
 
After walking in the first inning, Mastrangelo smashed a two-run shot in the third, a solo shot in the fourth and a two-run shot in the fifth inning to give Harford a walk-off win via the 10-run rule. Mastrangelo currently leads the nation with a 1.145 slugging percentage.
 
It was a one-run game heading into the bottom of the fourth inning thanks to a two-run rally by Allegany (15-14, 6-8 MD JUCO). But Harford found another gear, scoring five runs in the fourth inning and six in the fifth.
 
Joe Sheeran and Colby Dean each went deep for Harford in the big innings for Harford. Sheeran hit the second of back-to-back jacks following Mastrangelo's shot in the fourth inning. It was the fifth of the year for Sheeran. Dean's blast led off the fifth inning and was the first of the season for the freshman outfielder.
 
Anthony Atticks (4-2) got the win on the mound. He gave up five earned runs on six hits and a pair of walks while striking out three batters over 4 1/3 innings pitched. Alex Brown came on in relief in the fifth inning. He pitched 2/3 of an inning, giving up two hits and a walk while striking out one. He allowed two inherited runners to score.
 
The double play combo of CJ Young and Chase DeMars had nearly identical lines at the plate with three hits, an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base. Young's double in the fourth inning highlighted a 3-for-4 day at the plate while DeMars' RBI double in the fifth put an exclamation point on his 3-for-3 day at the plate.
 
 Harford 11, Allegany 0
After using power to score 11 runs in the final two innings of game one, Harford used an aggressive running attack to score nine runs in the first two innings of game one. As a team, Harford stole six bases in the first two innings, including five in the four-run first. It was a little bit more of a conventional attack in the second inning with one stolen base and six hits.
 
Joe Sheeran landed the biggest blow with a two-RBI triple in the second. He went 2-for-3 with three runs batted-in, two runs scored and two stolen bases. Mastrangelo's lone hit in the game was a double. He went 1-for-2 with a walk, an RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base.
 
Reigning NJCAA Player of the Week Ben Bomberger went 3-for-3 with a pair of doubles. He raised his batting average to .558, moving him to the top of the national leader board. He drove in two, scored three runs and stole a base in the game. Jack Hamner went 1-for-1 in the game with two runs scored and a stolen base. He is third in the nation with a .505 batting average.
 
James English (6-0) gave up a hit, a walk and hit a batter while striking out four over two innings pitched. Ben Collincini pitched an inning, giving up a hit and a walk while striking out one. Anthony Vattuone's struck out one and hit batter in his inning of work. Chad Bronson gave up a hit and a walk over one inning.
 
Harford will be home to face Anne Arundel on Tuesday evening. First pitch is scheduled for 6:30 p.m.
