McIntyre was the Blue Devils’ top run producer in a season-opening series victory at Navy.  The reigning all-NEC first team first baseman started his senior season by going 8-for-16 (.500) at the plate with five runs scored and five runs batted in over a four-game set with the Midshipmen.  He opened the series with a 3-for-5 performance at the plate and again went 3-for-5 in the finale. McIntyre’s first plate appearance of the season resulted in two runs for the Blue Devils.  Going up against preseason all-Patriot League hurler Ben Nelson, CCSU’s first baseman lined a two-run single to centerfield and the Blue Devils would not look back in an eventual 7-1 triumph.  He added an RBI double in the ninth inning for insurance.  McIntyre was held hitless during the first half of Saturday’s doubleheader, which ended as a 3-2 setback for CCSU.  The 6-foot-4 thumper came back with a pair of hits, including a third-inning single that plated Dylan DelaCruz with the team’s fourth run, to help CCSU to a 4-2 win in the nightcap.  His three hits and three runs scored led Central Connecticut to a 6-4 victory in Sunday’s series finale. McIntyre’s eight hits and five RBI led all players in the four-game series. He flawlessly fielded his position as well, playing four error-free games at first base.
