Mount Pulaski traveled to Manito last Thursday night and was
shut out in a Tomahawk Conference matchup with Midwest Central
10-0.
Midwest Central jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the bottom of the
first inning and the Raiders just kept the runs coming. They
scored in each of the first four innings and finally added the
tenth run in the sixth inning to come away with the 10-0
victory.
The Hilltoppers managed just three hits. Logan DeRight, Joey
Davis and Jonathan Shehorn each had singles for Mount Pulaski.
Freshman Todd Kelly (0-3) took the loss on the mound. Kelly
allowed four hits while giving up nine runs, of which only one
was earned. The Hilltoppers defense committed five errors in the
game.
Mount Pulaski’s record falls to 2-8 on the season.
Looking ahead to this week the Hilltoppers have a tough schedule
to face on the road.
