Box Score JERSEY CITY, NJ - The College at Florham Devils were defeated by New Jersey City, 9-2, in non-conference action on Tuesday afternoon.

With the loss, the Devils dropped to 10-9 while the Gothic Knights improved to 11-8.

New Jersey City started the scoring with a run in the bottom of the second to go along with three more in the bottom of the third.  The Gothic Knights made it 6-0 in the bottom of the fourth before FDU cut it to 6-2 in the top of the fifth thanks to a bases loaded walk from junior first baseman Frank LaGuarina and a sacrifice fly by senior outfielder Nick Core.  NJCU got those runs right back in the bottom half of the fifth though, to take an 8-2 advantage before adding an insurance run in the bottom of the seventh to seal the 9-2 victory.
