The Jaguars trailed 1-0 in the bottom of the seventh inning, sitting on two outs. In fact, I heard the Pioneers were one strike away from the win. Josh Beier scored from third base to tie the game at 1-1 and force an extra inning.
Josh Roelike went all eight innings on the mound for the complete game win.
The Jaguars baseball team hosts Maple Lake in a double-header at Regal on Tuesday. They will have a huge head of momentum going into this game, and hopefully the pitching can carry them through to two more wins.
Pierz is the 2-time defending conference champions.
While their current three-game winning streak is very impressive, it is way too early to talk about a conference championship. I've seen this before with other teams in other sports at B-B-E, and four games into a 14-game conference schedule is nothing to make predictions off of.
The Jaguars Fastpitch team hosted Pierz tonight and overcame a 6-4 deficit to win 7-6 in eight innings.
They will travel to Maple Lake for a double-header against the three-time defending CMC champion Irish. Maple Lake is 5-0, while the Jaguars are 4-1 overall. It is undoubtedly the biggest matchup any boys or girls Jaguars team has faced this school year since September 28 last fall when the Jaguars volleyball team went to Eden Valley-Watkins with first place in the CMC on the line.
Meanwhile, the Jaguars track and field hosts the third annual Lions Invite at 4:15 on the high school sports complex.
