Relief pitchers Josh Uhlhorn, Brandon Stephany, and Zach Marten combined to allow 2-hits and a run over the final 3-frames to limit pitch counts, allowing them to make further appearances in the state tournament.
Offensively, Ridge Guyette, Marten, and Stephany had 2-hits apiece while Carter Stebane was 1-for-4 with 2-RBI.
