Huskies Ride Vaisvila’s No-Hit Start to Rout Bobcats, Win Series

ATHENS, Ohio (Interstat) — Max Vaisvila fired six no-hit innings and Caden Robertson delivered a three-run homer as Northern Illinois rolled past Ohio 8-2 on Sunday afternoon at Bob Wren Stadium to claim the Mid-American Conference series.

Vaisvila (6.0 IP, 8 K) allowed one earned run but was dominant, combining with two relievers on a four-hit effort for the Huskies (9-5). His outing set the tone. Robertson’s blast to left field in the fifth inning broke the game open, part of a 10-hit attack for Northern Illinois.

Reese Harmon homered for the Bobcats (3-13), who managed just four hits. AJ Dallmayer took the loss for Ohio, allowing four runs over five innings. The Huskies won two of three in the weekend set.
