Baseball Recap: Vel Phillips Memorial Starts off Right with Win over Beaver Dam

Vel Phillips Memorial took care of business in their home opener (barely) on Thursday. They won by a run and slipped past the Beaver Dam Golden Beavers 2-1. That's more bragging rights for the Spartans, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.

Kellen Mulcahy tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only one hit over five innings pitched.

Coincidentally, Vel Phillips Memorial and Beaver Dam will both be playing Baraboo the next time they take the field. The Golden Beavers will head out to face the Thunderbirds at 5:00 p.m. on Friday, while the Spartans will host them at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday.
