David Sweeting pitched a one-hit shutout Thursday as the Kirkwood Community College Eagles blanked Marshalltown, 1-0, in the first game of a non-conference doubleheader at Kirkwood's Cedar Rapids campus.

Marshalltown won the second game, 5-0.

Sweeting, a sophomore from the Bahamas, struck out five batters and did not walk anyone in his third straight victory for the Eagles (11-7).

The first game was scoreless heading into the bottom of the seventh and last inning. Shawn Hagarty reached first base on an error, was bunted to second base and scored on an RBI single to right field by Matt Paciello.

Keaton Blackford took the loss in the second game for Kirkwood. He was reached for five runs (three earned) in six innings. The Eagles got only four hits in the game.
