Baseball downs Deer Park

The baseball team run-ruled Deer Park yesterday afternoon, winning 10-0 in six.

Max Kadish got the win, striking out eight in the process.  Max also had a double.

Casey Howell went two 2-3 with a double and 3 RBI's.  The paper also says Chalmers went 2-2.  While I can eliminate softball starting shortstop junior Audra Chalmers, I have to choose between senior outfielder Adam and freshman second baseman Parker.  I'm going with seniority and say it was Adam.  By the way, when was the last season that a Wyoming family had three sibling starters?

Next up: a return matchup this afternoon at Deer Park at 4:30.
