There's no place like home for Cheyenne Mountain, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Tuesday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Air Academy Kadets on Thursday, sneaking past 6-4. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Red-Tailed Hawks have posted against the Kadets since April 16, 2022.
Charlie Scofield made a splash no matter where he played. On the mound, he struck out seven batters over six innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off seven hits (and only one walk). He has been consistent recently: he hasn't tossed less than five strikeouts in three consecutive appearances. He was also big at the plate, going 1-for-4 with one home run and two RBI.
In other batting news, Nate Glad was excellent, scoring two runs while going 1-for-3. Another player making a difference was Jansen Roberts, who scored a run while going 2-for-3.
Cheyenne Mountain is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five matches. That somehow still isn't as good as their 6-1-1 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 10.2 runs over those games. Having lost for the first time this season, Air Academy fell to 9-1-1.
Cheyenne Mountain and Air Academy should be looking forward to their upcoming games as both have a sizable advantage in the MaxPreps Colorado Rankings. The Red-Tailed Hawks will square off against Thomas Jefferson at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday with a big rank advantage (3 vs. 184). Meanwhile, Air Academy (ranked fourth) will meet Green Mountain (ranked 79th) at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. The two teams have allowed few runs on average (the Kadets 3.9, the Rams 3.8) so any runs scored will be well earned.
