It's playoff time, and Trinity Christian Academy had no trouble coming through when it counted. They skirted past the Maclay Marauders 3-2. The win was nothing new for the Conquerors as they're now sitting on three straight.
Aaron Watson spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered two runs (both of which were unearned) on two hits and racked up seven Ks. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts any time he's pitched this season.
At the plate, Aiden Arnett was excellent, going 3-for-4 with one stolen base, one run, and one double. That's the most hits he has posted since back in March of 2024. Another player making a difference was Jordan Martinez, who got on base in three of his four plate appearances with one triple, one run, and one RBI.
