Elias Reyes tossed a big game, not allowing a single earned run and only a hit while striking out nine over five innings pitched. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in strikeouts.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Ayden Vieth, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-2.
South Hills will get to enjoy the win for a while: their next game is against Bonita at 3:00 p.m. on March 5th. The last three games South Hills has played (dating back to last season) have been within two runs, so don't be surprised if it's a close one.
