King couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a 5-2 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Harper Woods Pioneers on Saturday. The defeat means King is still on the hunt for the season's first 'W'.
For Harper Woods' part, Camden Wilson spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on three hits and racked up ten Ks.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Pierre Iwu, who went 2-for-2 with two stolen bases, two doubles, and two RBI. Dai'Jon Brooks was another key contributor, scoring a run and stealing two bases while going 2-for-3.
Harper Woods made their fans wait, but they earned their first win of the season to make their record 1-4.
The teams didn't have to wait long for a rematch: they beat King by a score of 16-1 later that day.
