Treutlen Sweeps Montgomery

The Treutlen County Vikings and the Montgomery County Eagles baseball teams met last week for a pair of Region games. It was the Vikings that came out on top as they won both games over their rival.

Game 1

It was all Treutlen on Tuesday of last week in Mt. Vernon. They got on the board first with an RBI double from Acie Dickens to take a 1-0 lead in the top of the third inning. The Vikings added two more runs in the fourth to push the lead to 3-0.

Treutlen broke the game open in the top of the fifth inning with seven more runs as they pulled ahead to a 10-0 lead. They held on to take the game by the run rule, 10-0.

Jack Walker led Treutlen with a 3-3 performance at the plate. Gavin Wood, Brylan Ikner, Kylan Page, and Gavin Bailey also drove in runs for the Vikings.

Game 2

Wood threw a onehitter for the Vikings against the Eagles on Friday of last week in Soperton.

Treutlen got a two-RBI single from Caden Parrish in the bottom of the first inning, and the Vikings stole home on another play to take a 3-0 lead. Treutlen added three more runs in the second inning, two scored on errors, and the third came in on a hit by Walker.

The Vikings picked up another run in the fourth inning and one more in the sixth on the way to an 8-0 win.
