On May 14, 2012, the top two teams in the current league standings will go head to head, as
Ilion and
Clinton meet. The Golden Bombers currently hold a 0.50-game lead over the Warriors for first place.
Clinton trails Ilion by just 0.50 games in the league standings, which means there could have a new first-place team by next week.
Sherburne-Earlville's pitching staff dominated this week, allowing only 21 hits and nine walks, both of which led the league. The Marauders have given up a mere 55 hits on the year in addition to compiling 70 strikeouts.
Mike Wilson is the leader in that category with 32 Ks on the season.
Sherburne-Earlville, the league leader in stolen bases this season with 48, added to its lead in that category with 18 more steals over the past week. Manager Brian Hicks is giving his players opportunities to steal, and
Jake Bohnert has racked up a team-high 15 stolen bases for the Marauders.
Sherburne-Earlville's
Carter Cole finished his week with six hits, tops in Section 3 Center State II. On the season, he's hitting .472 and ranks second in the league with 17 hits.
