Perfect start to the season w/ a W over Panther Creek 10-6. Great pitching from Tanner Horton, Jackson Bishop and Jacob Walker. Bats were alive w/ Matthew Lombard's 1st bomb of the season, Colin Scoggins going 4 for 4, and Louis Berini w/ a 3RBI night.
A big W for the Knights in the first round of the playoffs. Matt Lombard w/ a strong showing on the mound with Corbyn Poe bringing the noise with the bat going 3 for 4. Round 2 is Thursday. More details to come later.
Fantastic yr for Knights Baseball & w/ it came some individual accolades. Please congratulate these players & staff for our season successes.
