On Tuesday, April 16th, Varsity baseball completed their first conference sweep of the season in some of the most unusual fashion you will ever see!

The Burley Bobcats came to town on April 4th for what was meant to be a double-header. After the Tigers went up 1-0, the game was suspended in the bottom of the second due to inclement weather and unsafe conditions. They returned on the 16th to finish game one and play game two of the twin billing.

Tre Morse had pitched the first two innings on the 4th and returned to the mound to continue pitching April 16th. Between the two days of baseball, he pitched all seven innings, threw 94 pitches, gave up one unearned run on two hits, surrendered two walks and notched 17 strikeouts. The final score had the Tigers victorious 4-1.
