Maine East had to settle for second on Tuesday, but Keon Lapez sure wasn't going down easily. Lapez tossed six innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off seven hits. The effort marked the fewest earned runs he has had since back in April.
Even though Lapez couldn't lead Maine East over Niles North, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:45 p.m. on Thursday. Despite Lapez's best efforts to the contrary, the Blue Demons will head into their next match having dropped 17 straight games. Will Thursday be the turning point? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more baseball content.
