Baseball Recap: Hancock Comes Up Short

Hancock extended their losing streak to seven on Tuesday, dropping them down to 3-8. They were a single run away from ending the streak, but they lost a 5-4 heartbreaker at the hands of the Ashby Arrows. The Owls were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Arrows apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in April of 2025.

As for Ashby, they are on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 5-10 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 6.8 runs over those games.

For Ashby's part, the team relied heavily on AJ Olson, who went 1-for-2 with one home run and three RBI. Those three RBI gave Olson a new career-high. Aiden Jeppeson also deserves some recognition as he got his first hit of the season.

Coming up, Hancock will be playing at home against Canby at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. Ashby does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
