On the hitting side, Nico Convertito was incredible, going 2-for-3 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Jackson Zylick was another key player, going 2-for-4 with three stolen bases and one run.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Masuk will challenge Bethel at 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday. The Wildcats' pitching crew has only allowed 2.6 runs per game this season, so the Panthers' hitters will have their work cut out for them.
