Game Summary
Sequoia wasted several scoring chances in the first four innings before finally pushing across two runs in the 5th and another in the 6th en route to a 3-1 win in the Selma Easter Tournament over host Selma HS. SR RHP Kyle Cambron continued his spectacular season allowing the Bears just a single run over 7 full innings and improving to 7-1 on the year. The Sequoia defense was again nearly flawless, cashing in on a pair of big double plays. SR Catcher Chris Ortiz continued his remarkable year behind the plate cutting down the only attempted steal of the afternoon. SR 2B Zane Gelphman went 2 X 3 with a double and an RBI, SR 3B Cameron Greenough singled in a run in three at bats and stole a base, and JR RF Tommy Lopiparo pitched in with an RBI sacrifice fly to round out the Cherokee scoring. Sequoia improves to 12-3-1 on the season and will strap it on again for a double-header tomorrow afternoon vs. Sierra Pacific (12:30 pm) and Kerman (3:00 pm) as the Easter Classic continues.
