Algoma baseball split a back-and-forth doubleheader with Peshtigo on Saturday, riding a big offensive performance in Game 1 before falling in extras in the nightcap.

Charlie Prokash set the tone early, driving in four runs on three hits to lead the Wolves to a 12-6 win in the opener. His two-run double sparked a go-ahead third inning, and Algoma never looked back, adding five more runs in the sixth to break it open.

The Wolves racked up 11 hits and showed patience at the plate with seven walks, while Prokash also delivered on the mound with eight strikeouts over 5 2/3 innings.

Game 2 flipped the script. Algoma jumped out to a 3-0 lead behind early production from Jacob Massey and Braeden Leist, who finished with three hits, but couldn’t hold off a late Peshtigo push. The Wolves battled back to tie it at five in the fifth, only to see Peshtigo pull away with three runs in the eighth to secure an 8-5 win.

A day of rest stands between Algoma and its next game, a date with Two Rivers on Monday at 4:30 p.m.
