UNDER 12 MINOR Lara 19 defeated Guild 18 Guild and Lara played a very tight game of baseball, with both team’s hitters working hard to get on base. The difference between the two sides was the fielding at the end of the game. Lara had two great plays in the field at third base to shut down the potential winning runs from Guild. Ethan Jolly collected several safe hits with one being a stand up double to left field. Quinn O’Malley was a very good all round performer for Lara, hitting the ball hard and setting up many plays on base for his team.

Saints' "Ash's Army" hosted Newport Rams on a sunny Saturday morning at Pioneer Park. Coming off a good win the team was looking to improve on their form of the week before displayed against Guild. Jesse Bennetts who got the start against Guild was given the start against Newport and gave a solid couple of innings against a good Newport hitting lineup. Jesse Bennetts and Chris (Ranga) Regan once again showed another good outing as a pitcher catcher pair. The team was once again very good offensively with every inning producing base runners and scoring opportunities but unfortunately couldn’t capitalize on them. Although the margin was a bit of a blow out there was good signs for the Saints team. 5 players recorded safe hits Jordan Isbister (1 RBI), Jesse Bennetts (1 RBI), Jordan Hunter, Mitch Thomas and Luke Flavell (First hit for year) all recorded hits while the rest of the team produced good at bats and displayed good base running. Stand outs in the field was Kyle Williams at short stop who made some outstanding and important outs and Chris (Ranga) Regan displayed the catching skills that show a promising future behind the plate. Once again a solid outing but the team will look to bounce back next round. GO SAINTS!!!!! (Thanks to Saints for this detailed report....Editor).
