FLEMINGTON, NJ - Senior outfielder Matt Oliveto went 3-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI to lead the College at Florham Devils over King's, 11-1, in Freedom Conference action on Tuesday evening.

With the win, the Devils improved to 16-10 (10-6 Freedom) while the Monarchs dropped to 14-16-1 (9-8-1 Freedom).

FDU got on the board first in the bottom of the second inning with a RBI single from junior third baseman John Pieper.  The Devils then made it 4-0 in the third on a three-run home run by sophomore outfielder Nick Core before King's got their run in the top of the fourth to make it 4-1.  A two-run single from Oliveto in the bottom of the fourth made it 6-1 before the Devils plated four in the fifth and one in the sixth to put the game out of reach.

Junior shortstop Steve Seminerio finished 2-for-5 with a double, a stolen base, two runs scored and two RBI while Pieper and senior outfielder Dan Pregno each had two hits.  Senior pitcher Brandon Smith picked up the win, tossing four innings while allowing one run on four hits.
