Carrollton Pours Heat On Jersey Late In Game To Pull Out A Win
h Jeff Krumwiede said, "When we don’t play well we give up a lot of easy runs. We are 16-5 we can hit a little bit. We got a couple breaks here and there; they continued to play shallow which surprised me. I am happy about kids coming back. Clay (Schnettgoeke) shut the door on them. He got a little defense behind him. I am so proud of Clay today he was able to slow them down while we got the lead back. I know we are going to get better; we got better late in the game. We are fortunate to be where we are, offense has come through again. Tuesday and Thursday we have Calhoun next week, which will be big.”
Jersey baseball coach Darren Pedun said, "We just got outplayed today. Hats off to Carrollton for their performance, we just didn’t play well today.”
Nathan Walker and Gabe Jones had three hits to lead Carrollton. Ethan Brannan had two hits and Grant Pohlman and Settles added hits. Schnettgoecke pitched three innings, got the win in relief of Walker. Schnettgoeke gave up only one hit and struck out three. “He really threw strikes and saved us,” Krumwiede said.
John Collins had three hits, one of his was a double. Ethan Snider had a hit and three RBI and Garrett Cary added a hit for the Panthers.
Jersey falls to 10-8 with the defeat.
