NW 4, Glenn 3
Aker struggled early, and was fortunate to get out of the first 2 innings giving up only 3. With bases loaded and 0 outs in 2nd, some very poor baserunning cost Glenn 2 outs, both on runners being picked off base. NW overcame some bad baseball luck, several line drives hit right at people, and managed to get just enough runs to win.
WA loses 10 -1 will plat EG for tiebreaker at Williams High School Thursday at 7

Coach Gann and the Vikings kept grinding it out without panicking, trusting each other, and they persevered. Hats off. They have been the standard in our league for a couple of years.
However, the Glenn team was over-coached at times and poorly managed at others last night. The players deserved a better opportunity to win. Not speculating here. I was the one doing the poor managing.
Cat Coach you do coach differently when my son is on the mound.
You were not nearly as aggressive on our visit to your field. Hats off to you for getting your team amped up to face him. Chips just fell NW way last night.

Glenn and SW have combined for 30 of the 42 H Aker has allowed this year. Good job by both you and Coach Holmes.
