The Railsplitters scored their lone run in the first inning when Colbie Glenn and Trey Schilling reached base on singles. After Alex Hoffert walked, the bases were loaded with two outs for Andrew Graue. Glenn would score on a passed ball during Graue’s at-bat. Graue would eventually walk to load the bases again. A fly out by Jaden Klopp ended the inning for the Railsplitters.

 

Champaign Central took a 2-1 lead in the top of the second inning and continued to build the lead throughout the game. 

 

A four-run seventh inning really put the win away for Champaign Central.

Aidan Nemeth tossed the complete game, allowing eight runs on eleven hits. Only two of the runs were earned. Nemeth struck out three batters and walked three.
