McIntyre was one of an amazing 10 Blue Devils to bat over .300 during last week’s five-game clip that featured a NEC series sweep over Constitution State rival Quinnipiac.  The 6-foot-4, 225-pound corner infielder scored five runs and added five RBI in five starts, four of which came at first base.  McIntyre, who went 6-for-17 (.353) at the plate, hit safely in all five contests and rides a six-game hit streak as a result.  He walked once and blasted a two-run first-inning homer in Central’s 9-3 series-opening victory against Quinnipiac.  In Game 2, McIntyre produced a fifth-inning single and came around to score.  His run gave Central a 6-1 lead at the time, but it wound up being the difference in an eventual 6-5 final.  After Quinnipiac took a 2-0 lead in the top half of the first inning in Game 3, McIntyre answered right back for the Blue Devils in their first at-bat.  His run-scoring single sent Central on its way to an eventual 3-2 triumph.  The left-handed swinging slugger went 2-for-5 with a double, a RBI, and two runs scored in a 13-7 win that completed the four-game series sweep on Sunday.  McIntyre served as the designated hitter in the Blue Devils’ lone non-conference bout of the week.  He had a hit, walk, run, and RBI against Big East member Connecticut.
