Head Coach Jon Mueller
"May be our finest win of the season thus far. Down 4-0 after 5 innings and our defense and pitching held their offense at bay. Offensively, we put together quality at bats and grinded it out. Pete Torres had a huge two-out hit, and Malm and Feil went back to back late. Yankowski and Takacs were excellent and Kruszka closed it out."
