Baseball Recap: Valley Comes Up Short

Valley extended their losing streak to nine on Tuesday, dropping them down to 1-9. They lost 21-0 to the Cheyenne Desert Shields. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Vikings of the 20-1 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in February of 2025.

As for Cheyenne, they have been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-5 record this season. Considering they have won 11 games by more than five runs this season, Tuesday's blowout was nothing new.
