The Luxemburg-Casco baseball team scored in five consecutive innings and still needed a late stand to hold off Denmark for Tuesday's 7-6 win.

 

It looked like it would be rinse and repeat for the Vikings early on as they scored three times in the opening inning, only to see the Spartans tally single runs in each of the first three innings. The Spartans broke the tie with two runs in the fourth inning, with Gavin Lax and Ethan Werner driving in runs. Eli Derenne and Carson Blohowiak would drive in their runs one inning later. Leading 7-3, the Spartans allowed the tying run to reach second base before finally putting the game away. 

 

Derenne, Lax, and Noah Chervenka each collected two hits in the Spartans' win, with Derenne driving in two runs, while Lax, Landon Derenne, Werner, and Blohowiak also drove in runs. 

 

The Spartans return to action on Thursday, playing Sturgeon Bay at home. Tim Kowols will have the call on 104.1 WRLU beginning at 4:15 p.m., and the pregame show will follow the first pitch at 4:30 p.m.
