Pardeeville waltzed into their match on Monday with six straight wins... but they left with seven. They never let the Lourdes/Valley Christian Knights onto the board and left with a 4-0 win. This was payback for Pardeeville, who suffered an 11-1 defeat the last time these two teams met.
Preston Jenkins was a major factor no matter where he played. He didn't allow a single earned run and only two hits while striking out eight over 6.2 innings pitched. Jenkins has been consistent recently: he hasn't pitched less than five innings in four consecutive pitching appearances. Jenkins was also solid in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with four RBI.
Jenkins wasn't the only one making solid contact as six players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Brady Dolgner, who scored a run and stole a base while going 1-for-3. Dolgner has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last four times he's played.
Pardeeville is on a roll lately: they've won 11 of their last 12 matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 15-3 record this season.
