Alec Nicholos Game Report: vs Crete-Monee

Herscher took down Crete-Monee on Saturday, a win that might not have happened without Alec Nicholos's standout effort. Nicholos did his part (and then some), striking out seven batters over five innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits for the 'W'.

Looking ahead, a feisty cat fight will be fought as Herscher Tigers challenge St. Anne Cardinals at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. St. Anne will enter the matchup having just beaten Watseka, so Herscher will have to guard against a team looking to keep the ball rolling.
