Rutgers-Camden Athletics

Junior righty Billy Jackson turned in a stellar performance on the mound in his only outing last week for the Rutgers-Camden baseball team. He limited hard-hitting William Paterson University to only four hits and one unearned run over eight innings as the Scarlet Raptors won the nightcap of Sunday’s doubleheader, 5-1, to sweep their conference-opening twinbill. Jackson struck out five and didn’t walk a batter as he raised his record to 2-1 and lowered his ERA to 1.33. In 20.1 innings this spring, he has allowed 15 hits, seven runs (only three earned) and five walks, while striking out 10. Opponents have a .188 batting average against him.
