Bear River had to skate by with only a two-run margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the eight-run drubbing they dealt Morgan on Friday. The Bears never let the Trojans get on the board and left with an 8-0 win. The result was nothing new for the Bears, who have now won seven contests by six runs or more so far this season.
Ethan Higgs was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run while striking out seven over five innings pitched. Those seven strikeouts gave him a new career-high. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI.

Potter went 2-for-5 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI, while Theure got on base in all three of his plate appearances with two runs, one stolen base, and one double. Those two runs gave Theure a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Michael Sanchez, who went 2-for-3 with one run and one double.
