The Campbell Hall Vikings will take on the Chula Vista Spartans in a tournament on Monday. Campbell Hall's pitching crew has only allowed 3.8 runs per game this season, so Chula Vista's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
Campbell Hall took a loss when they played away from home two weeks ago, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed last Wednesday. They blew past Grant 7-0.
Nasir Akil and Jared Page did most of the damage at the plate: Akil scored two runs while going 1-for-3, while Page scored a run while going 2-for-3. Page also put up a double, which was his first of the season. Roman Ochoa was another key player, scoring two runs and stealing a base while getting on base in two of his four plate appearances.
Meanwhile, Chula Vista was able to grind out a solid victory over Lincoln on Thursday, taking the game 10-5. With that win, the Spartans brought their scoring average up to 6.2 runs per game.
Jorge Lopez tossed a big game, tossing 6.1 innings while giving up just two earned (and three unearned) runs off nine hits.
At the plate, Adrian Rodarte was a standout: he got on base in all five of his plate appearances with four RBI. Those four RBI gave him a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Noah Gomez, who scored two runs and stole two bases while going 3-for-4.
Chula Vista kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 5 hits per game earlier this season, but in their last 15 contests they've averaged 9.4.
Campbell Hall has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. The victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 1.5 runs on average over those games. Chula Vista now has a winning record of 5-4-2.
