MEQUON, Wis. - The Wisconsin Lutheran College
baseball team dropped two Northern Athletics Conference games
against Concordia Wisconsin in a doubleheader on Sunday afternoon
at Kapco Park in Mequon, Wis. The Warriors dropped game one 8-3,
before falling 7-2 in game two.
In the opener, the bottom of the third inning proved to be the
difference as Concordia Wisconsin tallied five runs in the frame to
take a 5-0 lead. Beau Burgert had the big hit of the inning as he
roped a two-out, three-RBI double down the left field line.
The Warriors plated their first two runs of the game in the top
of the fifth. Tyler Schoen (Marion, Wis./Marion) and Garrick Day
(Elk Mound, Wis./Elk Mound) started the inning off with singles and
Connor Vredeveld (Waterloo, Wis./Lakeside Lutheran) and Cody Nevils
(Boca Raton, Fla./West Boca Raton) recorded RBIs in the frame to
bring the score to 5-2.
CUW would score two more runs in the bottom of the sixth and
both teams plated one in the seventh making the final tally 8-3 in
favor of the Falcons. It was Vredeveld who doubled in Day in the
top of the seventh for the Warriors, giving the freshman outfielder
his second RBI of the game.
Andrew Mueller picked up the win for Concordia Wisconsin as he
went the distance scattering four hits over nine innings. Mueller
struck out three and gave up two earned runs. Josh Smith (Appleton,
Wis./East) took the loss for WLC pitching 5 and 1/3 innings.
CUW was led by the top of its order as the number two hitter
Daniel Mueller was a perfect 5-for-5 with two runs scored, while
leadoff man David Enters went 3-for-6. Day was the only Warrior to
record multiple hits, going 2-for-4 with two runs scored.
Game two saw Wisconsin Lutheran jump out to an early lead as it
scored in the top of the second when Brett Youngbeck (Brown Deer,
Wis./Brown Deer) scored to give WLC a 1-0 lead. CUW answered with
two in the bottom of the third to take a 2-1 lead.
WLC then scored again in the top of the sixth inning when Schoen
singled in Doug Martin (West Bend, Wis./Kettle Moraine Lutheran) to
tie things up at 2-2. That score remained until the bottom of the
seventh when the Falcons broke the game open with four runs,
including a two-RBI single from Nick Doedens for a 6-2 lead.

final 7-2.
