(HINTON) — Blake Wiltgen had four hits and five RBI’s Monday night in Hinton to lead unbeaten Gehlen Catholic to a 14-1 blitz of the Hinton Blackhawks in a War Eagle Conference baseball match-up.  Wiltgen’s two-run triple highlighted a six-run fifth inning that broke up a 1-1 pitcher’s duel.  Wiltgen added a two-run double in the seventh inning and also had a RBI single in the third that tied the game at 1-all.  Lucas Hunt finished with three hits for the Jays.  His RBI double in the fifth put Gehlen in front to stay.  Gehlen finished with 15 hits.  Brady Heying and Jarod Steffes combined on a six-hitter for the Jays.  Logan Jurgensmeier, a first team all-conference pick as a sophomore last season for Hinton when he went 10-and-0 in the regular season, gave up six runs in four innings to fall to 0-and-2 this season.  The win improves Gehlen’s record to 4-and-0 for the season and 3-and-0 in league play.  Hinton, last season conference champions, is now 2-and-2 in the W-E-C race and 3-and-4 for the season.

(ORANGE CITY) — Madison Dorhout’s eighth inning triple scored Anna Christians from first base with the winning run as Unity Christian edged Gehlen Catholic 8-7 in extra innings Friday night in War Eagle Conference softball action in Orange City.  Unity squandered leads of 4-0 and 5-2 before earning their first win over the Lady Jays in the last ten games.  Bailey Wiltgen belted her second home run of the season in the sixth inning to tie the game 5-all.  The Lady Knights took advantage of a Gehlen error to score two unearned runs in the bottom of the sixth to reclaim a 7-5 advantage.  However, two Unity Christian errors led to two Gehlen runs in the top of the seventh to again tie the game at 7-7.  Meghen Heying’s single to right brought the tying run across the plate for Gehlen.  The Lady Jays loaded the bases with nobody out in the eighth but couldn’t score.  Winning pitcher Tessa Schoonhoven pitched out of several jams throughout the game as Gehlen stranded twelve base runners.  She walked eight and hit three batters while checking the Lady Jays to six hits.  Schoonhoven helped her cause, belting a two-run homer to highlight a four-run first inning.  Gehlen falls to 3-and-6 for the season and 2-and-4 in the W-E-C.

(SIOUX CITY) — Le Mars won one and lost one at the Sioux City West earlybird softball tournament Friday.  In the first game of the day for Le Mars, Lawton-Bronson’s Lexi Binder threw a three-hitter with six strikeouts to pitch the Eagles to a 5-2 win over Le Mars.  Janessa Milbrodt allowed only six hits for Le Mars and struck out five but two costly errors led to two unearned runs.  Le Mars used a pair of nine-run innings in the second game of the day to rout Hinton 21-2 in three innings to improve their record to 5-and-5 for the season.  The Lady Bulldogs bunched seven hits with twelve walks to score nine runs in the first inning, two more in the second and nine more in the third.  The game ended on the 12-run ‘Mercy Rule’.  Janessa Milbrodt and Andrea Urban drove in three runs apiece to lead Le Mars offensively.  Crystal Eppling and Ellie Meade had two hits each.

Le Mars (3-3/2-0) 8, Emmetsburg 7

(LE MARS) — Le Mars held off Emmetsburg’s seventh inning rally to improve to 2-and-0 in Lakes Confernce baseball play with an 8-7 victory Friday night at the Bulldog Complex.  The Bulldogs scored three runs in the first inning to take an early lead but a five-run third by the E-Hawks forced Le Mars to play from behind.  The Dogs erupted for five runs in the bottom of the sixth  to reclaim an 8-5 advantage before Emmetsburg plated two runs in their last at-bat before Payton Pick halted the rally.  Pick earned the win in relief.  Starting pitcher Cameron Leff worked five innings, allowing three hits, three walks and seven strike outs.  Pick gave up one hit, walked two and struck out two.  Four Le Mars errors nearly proved costly, leading to two unearned runs.  Mitch Sitzmann had two hits for the Bulldogs with Dayton Rand and Mitch Timp driving in two runs each.  The Dogs capitalized on nine walks.  Le Mars improves to 3-and-3 for the season.  They’ll return to action Monday, hosting Spirit Lake.
