Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Russell-Tyler-Ruthton). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Heron Lake-Okabena/Fulda Coyotes a 14-0 shutout on Friday. Considering the Knights have won eight matchups by more than five runs this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Kolby Louwagie was a major factor while hitting and pitching. He didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only one hit while striking out seven over 5.1 innings pitched. That's the most strikeouts he has posted since back in April. He was also big at the plate, going 3-for-4 with two RBI, one run, and one double.
In other batting news, Gavin Schreurs was incredible, going 3-for-4 with one home run, three RBI, and two runs. Another player making a difference was Tyler Wichmann, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with two runs and two RBI.
Russell-Tyler-Ruthton's victory bumped their record up to 12-5.
Coming up, Russell-Tyler-Ruthton is taking a road trip to face off against Lakeview at 4:30 p.m. on Monday. The Knights are facing the Lakers at the right time seeing as the Lakers are stuck on a nine-game losing streak. Heron Lake-Okabena/Fulda does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
