After leaving lead-off batter Adam Mellinger stranded on 3rd base in the first inning, the JV Trojans got the scoring started in the second inning. Ty Conrad reached base on a PV error followed by a Collin Duff (3 for 4, 2B, 3R, 3Rbi) single. The runners advanced on a wild pitch and both scored on a Julian Colon 2Rbi single (1 for 1, 2B, BB, r). Back to back walks by Anderson Hummer and Mellinger loaded the bases with one out. Matt Ervolina reached on fielder’s choice, forcing Colon out at home. Hummer scored on a PV passed ball to complete the scoring in the second inning with a 3-0 lead.

Carson Fracas singled to lead off the 3rd inning, followed by a walk by Conrad. Duff singled driving in Fracas and Colon walked to load the bases. Conrad scored on Mark Leiby’s groundout and Anderson Hummer singled, scoring Duff and Colon. Mellinger walked and Will Algard singled but Hummer was tagged out at the plate after trying to score from 2nd, keeping the Trojan lead at 7-0.

After allowing two PV runs in the 5th, the Trojans battled back in the 6th inning. After back-to-back walks to Ervolina and Algard, Phil Schoch reached on an error to load the bases. Justin Petrisko hit into a fielder’s choice but Ervolina was safe at the plate, keeping the bases full with no one out. Duff doubled, scoring Algard and Schoch, extending the lead to 10-2. For the second consecutive game, Joe Webber supplied the walkoff hit, doubling to score Petrisko and Duff, bringing the lead to 10 to end the game.
