Lakeside bounces back!

Lakeside bounced back from their only loss of the season to defeat Omak, the #3 seed from the CTL, in a loser out game, 2 to 0. With the win, Lakeside advances to the state tournament as the District 6/7 #3 seed and will face Kiona-Benton, the District 5 #1 seed.

In a closely contested game, Anthony Froemke pitched what could of been his best game of the year, as he yielded 3 hits, striking out 6 and walking only 1. Hits were hard to come by for both teams, as the Omak pitcher matched Froemke in pitching a great game. Lakeside scored their first run on a misplayed fly ball to left field that left Travis Corigliano on second base. Scott Richards than sacrificed him to third, with a nice bunt. Corigliano scored when Jake Graham hit a sacrifice fly to center, driving in the games first run. There it stayed until the bottom of the 6th when Kyle Stillar led off with a base on balls, stole 2nd, stole 3rd and scored on a perfectly executed suicide squeeze by Richards.

You gotta love it! Well done Eagles!
