If Emery was riding high fresh off their 16-1 takedown of Judge Memorial Catholic last Wednesday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Spartans took a 9-6 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Manti Templars on Tuesday. The Spartans were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Templars apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2024.
Beau Stilson made the most of his time at bat despite the final result and scored a run and stole two bases while going 2-for-3. Tyce Larsen was another key player, going 3-for-4 with one RBI.
Emery has been struggling recently as they've lost eight of their last nine matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 4-11 record this season. As for Manti, the win got them back to even at 6-6.
Looking ahead, Manti will take on American Leadership Academy at 3:00 p.m. on Thursday. Emery will be paying especially close attention to the Templars' game: after the Templars faces off against the Eagles, they'll take on Emery again at 3:00 p.m. on Friday.
