QUINCY — The Quincy University baseball team doesn’t want Sunday’s 16-6 victory over Drury to complete a Great Lakes Valley Conference sweep to be its final game this season at QU Stadium. The Hawks want to play host to an NCAA Division II regional. Keep hitting the way they are and the Hawks likely will bring the postseason home run.

Sunday’s game featured 16 hits and six home runs from the Hawks, who lead all NCAA Division II programs with 2.37 home runs per game.
