Great Oak came into Wednesday's matchup having lost eight straight, but that streak is now in the rearview. They walked away with a 4-1 victory over the Bonita Bearcats on Wednesday. That's more bragging rights for the Wolfpack, who also won the pair's last head-to-head.

Reagan Ricken was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, striking out six batters over 3.2 innings while giving up just one earned run off three hits (and not a single walk). He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in three consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, scoring two runs while getting on base in two of his four plate appearances. That's the most runs he has posted since back in April of 2024.

Ricken wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Gavin Fien, who scored a run while going 3-for-4.

Great Oak's record now sits at 2-8. As for Bonita, their record is now 8-6.
