Logan Buckley made a big impact no matter where he played. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out 14 over seven innings pitched. Those 14 strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also big at the plate, going a perfect 3-for-3 with one home run, four RBI, and one double.
In other batting news, the team relied heavily on Carson Stuart, who got on base in all four of his plate appearances with three runs and one stolen base. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last five games he's played. Another player making a difference was Jackson Speir, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI and one run.
The win (which was Columbia Academy's eighth in a row) raised their record to 27-8. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.5 runs on average over those games. As for Parklane Academy, their defeat dropped their record down to 13-13.
