Valparaiso had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They never let the Evansville North Huskies get on the board and left with a 5-0 victory on Saturday. The Vikings are really starting to get used to good results now that the team has won 20 straight.

Caden Crowell made a big impact no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and allowing only two hits while striking out eight over seven innings pitched. He has been consistent for a while: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in ten consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going a perfect 4-for-4 with one double and one RBI. Those four hits gave him a new career-high.

In other batting news, DJ Malloy was excellent, going 2-for-4 with two stolen bases and three RBI. That's the most stolen bases he has posted since back in April.

Valparaiso's record now sits at 26-5. As for Evansville North, they moved to 25-9 with that loss, which also ended their seven-game winning streak.

As of now, neither Valparaiso nor the Huskies have any future games scheduled.
