Skyline had lost six straight at home dating back to last season, but on Tuesday they dropped down to 1-10 to make it seven. They fell 10-5 to the Longmont Trojans. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Falcons of the 7-3 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in April of 2025.
Jackson Stanich was cooking despite his team's loss, going 1-for-3 with two runs, one triple, and one RBI. That triple marked the first that he has hit this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Sam Wright, who went 1-for-2 with one triple and one RBI.
As for Longmont, they moved to 7-4 with that win, which also ended their three-game losing streak. Their offense finally found a way to get into gear: the high-octane performance was a 180-degree turn from their last three games.
On Longmont's side, Robbie Sekich was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, he tossed five innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off three hits. Sekich has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances. He was also solid in the batter's box, going 1-for-4 with two runs, one stolen base, and two RBI. He is becoming a predictor of Longmont's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is undefeated (and 1-4 when he doesn't).

Blase went 2-for-4 with four RBI and one triple, while Wetzel got on base in four of his five plate appearances with two runs and one stolen base. Those two hits gave Blase a new career-high.
