the sixth. With the bases loaded, Johnny Egan hit a sacrifice fly followed by
consecutive RBI singles by Hunter Young, Tyler Lenz and Trey Thompson to clinch
their third conference win. Thompson added a double and pitched the win. Division: CLC 2-2. Overall: 6-28. Next: Ridgewater at CLC 2 p.m. today
