Winning always takes teamwork, but on Monday Kade Nilges stepped things up a notch to give Crest the 'W'. Nilges struck out nine batters over 2.2 innings while giving up just two earned (and one unearned) runs off three hits (and only one walk). The performance marked the most strikeouts he has had since back in March of 2024.
Nilges' strong effort led Crest over Oswego and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:29 p.m. on Monday. The Indians are limping into the matchup having lost nine straight at home dating back to last season. There's no doubt they're looking for a change of fortune, but will Nilges and the Lancers have enough to stop it? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
