BASEBALL

NorthWood 6, Bremen 5 (8 innings)

Mason Bogan drew a walk with the bases loaded, scoring Connor Reed to win the game for the Panthers. It was a historic day for Reed, as his four stolen bases in the game tied a single-game program record with Kory Geyer (1997) and Duane Reinhardt (1976).

NorthWood scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to force extras. Their record is now 5-9 on the season.

Kade Sainz had the go-ahead RBI single in the top of the 10th, with the Raiders added two more insurance runs when Murphy Zimmerman reached on an error. Along with 13 hits in the game, the Raiders drew 10 walks too, helping them win a back-and-forth contest over the Trojans. Northridge is now 9-5 on the season.

Northridge 2, Elkhart 0 (delayed)

The game was stopped in the bottom of the fourth inning due to the weather. Elkhart was the home team in the game. The Elkhart-Chesterton contest that was supposed to take place after this game was then called off as well. Elkhart will be looking to finish the Northridge game, as well as make up the Chesterton contest, in the future if possible.
