The Olympic Heights Lions will venture away from home to take on the Saint Andrew's Scots at 3:30 p.m. on Thursday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.
On Tuesday, Olympic Heights didn't have quite enough to beat Monarch and fell 8-7.
Olympic Heights got a good showing from Ryan Kessner, who tossed one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. Furthermore, Kessner didn't allow a single earned run, the first time he has blanked an opponent since back in April of 2024.
At the plate, Mason Goldgewicht and Nathan Walters stepped up to the plate in a big way. Goldgewicht scored two runs while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances, while Walters scored a run while going 3-for-4. The team also got some help courtesy of Jayden Arias, who went 1-for-4 with two RBI and one double.
Meanwhile, Saint Andrew's had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They lost 15-2 to NSU University on Monday. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it four in a row.
