Beloit Trojan High School Baseball 4-22-2016

 

On Friday night Beloit took the field after a substantial layoff in their schedule to play NCAA league opponent Southeast of Saline. The games between the two league foes was a big one on the schedule as both squads look and continue to chase a NCAA league championship crown. The doubleheader was split with Southeast taking the first game 7-4, and Beloit winning the nightcap 4-0.

 

GAME 1

Southeast claims the win with a 7th inning rally to defeat Beloit 7-4. Beloit took a 3-2 lead into the 7th inning only to see Southeast come away with 5 runs in the inning to lead 7-3 going into the bottom half of the inning. Beloit didn’t go away easy in their half of the inning. Beloit made things very interesting scoring 1 run in their half, and leaving the bases loaded before Southeast could record the final out of the game.

 

Luke Hesting took the loss for Beloit going the distance. Hesting gave up 7 runs of which 5 were earned on 8 hits, walked 3 while striking out 3.

Beloit was limited to 4 hits by Southeast pitching. Hudson Smith was 1-3 at the plate. Luke Hesting, Michael Peters, and Trayton Post were each 1-4.

 

GAME 2

Dakota Shurts was the winning Beloit pitcher in game 2. Shurts with a superb outing threw a gem. Throwing strikes all game long Shurts used a good defense to stymie Southeast hitters. Shurts went the distance giving up no runs on 6 hits while striking out 4, and walking no batters.

The offense for the Beloit Trojans was supplied in the 3rd inning when they came up with all 4 of their runs. Hitting on the night was led by Luke Hesting who went 3-4, Colson Riemann went 2-3, Jared Mosher was 1-2, and Caydren Cox and Michael Peters were each 1-3.

 

The Trojans are now 7-5 overall and 5-1 in NCAA league play.
