Tribune Sports B Section B Saturday • May 16, 2015 www.tctribune.net The Official Newspaper of Traill County Mayville-Portland, ND Patriots win two of three games at softball crossover By James R. Johnson Weather may have been chilly for a high school softball crossover, but the May-Port CG/HattonNorthwood Patriots were hot enough at the plate to win two of three games, and assured themselves of home field for the region play-in game May 14. Patriots 20 Grizzlies 10 In the first of two games Friday, May 8, the Patriots scored in every inning against the Pembina County North Grizzlies, winning via the mercy rule 20-10 in six innings. After surrendering seven runs in the first two innings, pitcher Erin Freeland found her rhythm in the circle and had solid play from her defense. At the plate, Ashley Erickson and Leah Olson each scored four runs. Freeland and Mallory Twete came home three times each. Twete, Ali Hutter and Mikenzie Elliott had the big bats, each driving home three runs. Hutter singled home a run in the Patriots’ four-run first inning, while Twete caromed an RBI-double off of the third-base bag. Twete sent home another run in the second, then started a five-run fourth with an RBI-triple. Emily Vaagene knocked in the second run on a fielder’s choice before Elliott powered a two-run double down the right-field line to break an 8-8 tie. Hutter drove in Elliott with a single. Hutter sent home the game-ending run in the bottom of the sixth with her third single of the contest. Pirates 12 Patriots 5 Hankinson-Fairmount hurler Teri Loll no-hit the Patriots earlier this spring, but the chill and Patriot hitters chased her after four innings. Still, the Pirates had the more profitable at-bats, winning 12-5. Elliott drove home two runs and Twete knocked in another for the Patriots.

Patriots 14 Jaguars 6 The winner of Saturday morning’s game with the Northern Cass Jaguars would have home field for the region play-in game. Temperatures hovered around 40 degrees, but the Patriots’ bats were still warm, scoring eight runs in the first inning and mounting a 12-2 lead after five innings on the way to a 14-6 win. Morgan Vaagene had three hits and three RBIs. Hutter also had three hits, including a double, and two RBIs. Elliott had two hits including a triple. Makenzie Bring pitched all seven innings for the victory. Jaguars 12 HCV Burros 10 The Hillsboro-Central Valley Burros had just one game scheduled at the crossover.

The Jaguars won 12-10, but the Burros’ Laura Spurgeon played a steady game at third base, recording seven put-out assists in eight fielding attempts. “It took her a few games to get comfortable at that spot,” Erickson said, “but a few bumps and bruises later, she is doing great there, especially only being a fresh- Courtesy Jacobson Studio The Patriots’ Makenzie Bring (6) was in the pitching circle for the critical victory over Northern Cass. man.” A chance to advance The Patriots would host Northern Cass May 14, weather and dry field conditions permitting.

Sports 2B • May 16, 2015 • Traill County Tribune • www.tctribune.net Thunder sweep three at Casselton, then secure top seed in region By James R. Johnson The Hatton-Northwood Thunder have had little trouble putting runners on base. It’s getting them home that’s been frustrating. “We do leave some baserunners on, but we’re grinding at the plate,” Dennis Carpenter, Thunder head coach, acknowledged. “We get good contact with some pitches, but they don’t find grass and you hope eventually they’re going to find some grass. It does get frustrating, but this group doesn’t show it. They just think that the next guy in the lineup in going to pick it up.” Through five innings May 12 against visiting May-Port CG, the Thunder stranded 11 runners. Patriots’ starter Ian Chandler walked six batters, but kept pitching out of jams. With the score tied 2-2 in the bottom of the sixth, Chandler was lifted for Chase Knudson. The game hadn’t seen an infield error to that point, when Knudson fanned leadoff hitter Logan Vettleson. However, the third strike got away from MPCG catcher Brady Nygaard, who threw high over Aaron Evans’ glove at first base. Vettleson dashed to second base and scored when Jacob Pladson lashed his third hit of the game to break the tie. The Patriots scored twice in the second inning. Evans and Knudson started with base hits. One out later, Aaron Ust hit into a fielder’s choice to plate Evans. Knudson followed on an outfield error. The Thunder tied the game in the bottom of the third. Neil Foss By dave dakken The May-Port CG high school baseball team hosted HillsboroCentral Valley May 8. With Jacob Klath going the distance on the mound for the Patriots, the home team took a lead early, gave it up but came back to win. Patriot bats were ready, as they scored two runs in their first at-bat in the bottom of the first inning. Leadoff hitter Alec Chandler singled right off the bat, so to speak. One out later, Brady Nygaard did the same. Aaron Evans worked a base-on-balls to load the sacks. Then, third baseman Chase Knudson singled to score a run, and after one more out, Connor Moore drove in the second run. The Burros came right back, however, with three tallies in the second inning. They led off with a single, but Klath struck out the next batter. With the third batter up, the second one stole second base, and he was driven in by a base hit. An error on the next play by the Patriot shortstop scored a run and moved the other runners to first and third. Another single brought the third and go-ahead run across the plate, so the Burros were quickly in the lead 3-2. The lead didn’t last long though. The Pats tied the game 3-3 in the third inning. With two out, HCV Thunder leadoff hitter Jacob Pladson (9) came through in the clutch with the game-winning RBI in the sixth inning against May-Port CG. Pladson was 3x4 at the plate with a run scored. Coming through in Casselton Photos by James R.

Jake Bilden went the distance on the mound, striking out seven, walking two and yielding just five hits. When Pederson ended the game on a shortstop-to-first double play, the Thunder had secured the top seed in the Region 2 tournament.

Riley Pederson pitcher issued backto-back walks to Knudson and Klath. Moore was safe on a fielder’s choice and an error at second base brought Knudson safely across the plate. From that point on, Klath shut the Burros down. After their threerun second inning Klath didn’t allow a hit until the seventh inning when the visitors started it off with consecutive singles to make it interesting. Meanwhile, the Patriots had put together the runs they needed to win; two in the fourth and one more in the fifth.

The tournament shifts May 19 to Scott Berry Field on the Mayville State University campus, with the comeback bracket game set to start at 11 a.m. The Thunder stepped out of region play for three games May 8-9 in Casselton and came away with three wins. All games were five innings or a 90-minute time limit. The Thunder scored seven runs in the third inning May 8 against Sheyenne-New Rockford and held on for an 11-7 victory behind the pitching of Lucas Mohn, with Pladson finishing. Pladson scored twice and had two RBIs. Bilden had two hits and three RBIs. Saturday morning brought a 7-4 triumph over host Central Cass. Landon Workin picked up the pitching decision and Pederson a save. Burley and Dena Bergstrom of Mayville. Burley placed 12th in the women’s division with a time of 47:53.

Eric Nygaard followed with a tworun double. Simple. In the fifth, Knudson walked, stole second with Klath at bat, moved to third on a passed ball with Moore at the plate, then scored on Moore’s ground-out to second. Not quite as simple ... ask Knudson. Again, the Burros had a goodlooking start to the seventh inning with the consecutive singles. There they sat, three runs down but with runners on first and second and no outs. No problem, Klath struck out three in a row for the victory! Bilden had two more hits, scored three more runs and added an RBI to his weekend total. Foss, John Huus and Vettleson each had two hits. Later that afternoon, the Thunder made quick work of a very young Medina-Pingree-Buchanan team, 19-0 in three innings. Foss got the win on the mound and went 4x4 at the plate with three RBIs. For the tournament, Foss was 7x9 at the plate. Pederson supplied the power with two home runs and six RBIs. Mohn smacked a triple and drove in two runs. Garrett Erickson, Maverick Hedlund and Connor Konschak also saw some good playing time on Saturday. Erickson scored five runs in the two games. Klath finished with nine strikeouts, no walks and one hit batsman, a fine outing, except for the guy he hit, who was still rubbing his arm when the inning was over. It was a fine outing overall for the entire team. They made some plays, ran the base paths well, had several good at-bats, played decent defense and kept focused when they were a couple of runs behind to come back strong. You know, kind of a full-course baseball game, plus a pleasant and needed win. Coach Eric “Skip” Nygaard used some of his younger kids in the starting lineup. He had freshman Preston Edinger in left field. Two eighth-graders, Reese Hanson and Jackson Braaten, were in right field and shortstop, respectively. At the plate, Nygaard had two hits, a single and a double, in four at-bats with two RBIs. Knudson walked twice and singled in a run. Moore was 1x3 with an RBI, and so was Alec Chandler. Hanson was 1x4. The game with Hatton-Northwood scheduled in Hatton for May 11 was postponed because of the lovely spring weather – not any sunshine, not enough rain gear, not enough wind breakers and no snow wipers. The Patriots would play the Thunder the next afternoon in Northwood. MPCG’s Dale is all-region, HCV’s Nielsen is Coach of the Year The Region 2 boys golf tournament was held May 12 in Carrington.

Sports www.tctribune.net • Traill County Tribune • May 16, 2015 • 3B Comets complete spring football with scrimmage in Fargo By dave dakken Why Fargo? Well, Jerome Berg Field was not in great condition due to moisture. It would have been difficult to line it and get it game-ready in general. So the Mayville State University Comets held their annual spring scrimmage May 9 at Gate City Field on the campus of North Dakota State University, a turf field. Head coach John Haines had more than 60 players involved with spring football, which began April 13. The team practiced four days a week at 5:50 a.m. Haines was happy with the practices and the scrimmage. “We started from page one in April,” Haines began. “We worked on all the basics, all the fundamentals and reinstated every aspect of our game, defense, offense, etc. The nice thing about spring practice is that you don’t have a game on Saturday to prepare for.” Haines continued, “This group was very intense, very competitive and enthusiastic the whole spring, even more competitive than last fall.” As for the scrimmage, the final evaluation, the format was offense versus defense. There wasn’t any type of system to determine a winner of loser. They just played with a two-deep roster on both sides of the ball. Defensively, Coach Haines was impressed with several players. Nich Xalis, who was a redshirt last fall, had 11.5 tackles, one for a loss, and two sacks and an interception at safety/ linebacker. Skyler Berry did a Courtesy photo The Mayville State University Comets held their annual “Blue and White” spring football scrimmage May 9 in Fargo because the home field was too damp to play on. good job as a safety/linebacker as well. Yes, Skyler is related to baseball coach Scott Berry. Defensive ends Bandon Self and Marcus Cheaton were mentioned by Haines. Cheaton is a transfer from the University of North Dakota and will be a junior next fall. Haines stated, “He (Cheaton) caused some havoc, disrupted play all day. Self had 5.5 tackles, 1.5 for a loss and 1.5 sacks. Dante Stevens and Jason Smith played well at safety and corner respectively. As for the offense, Haines added, “They started to execute and played with pretty good tempo, ran plays quickly. We were right at about 100 plays, split with 54 runs and 46 passes and averaged over seven yards per play. We totalled 775 yards. It was pretty balanced, and the offense scored eight times.” The top four running backs accounted for 278 yards rushing on 34 carries. Martin Stafford had eight carries for 60 yards and a reception for 22 yards; Jerill Jenkins was 12 for 108; Desmond Earles had eight for Comets win first game, drop second in NAIA opening round By dave dakken Mayville State began play May 12 in the first round of the AvistaNAIA National Baseball Tournament in Bellevue, Neb. The first round of the tournament takes place at nine different sites across the nation. Five teams play a double-elimination format at each location; therefore, there are 45 teams involved. After each tournament is completed, nine teams will remain. Those nine teams will meet May 22-29 in Lewiston, Idaho for the Avista-NAIA World Series. The host team for the series is Lewis-Clark State College and they will be the tenth team in the double-elimination world series. The other eight locales are Daytona Beach, Fla.; Grand Rapids, Mich.; Kingsport, Tenn.; Lawrenceville, Ga.; Montgomery, Ala; Oklahoma City, Okla.; Santa Clarita, Calif; and Shawnee, Okla. Mayville, the No. 5 seed with a 39-20 record, began play in Bellevue against No. 4 seed Madonna University of Michigan with a 37-15 ledger. The other teams competing in Bellevue were first seed Tabor, Kan. (49-9); two seed Bellevue (44-13) and No. 3 seed William Woods, Mo. (38-12). The Comets defeated Madonna 6-1 but lost to Tabor 8-0. Comets 6 Madonna University 1 A large part of the story was Comet pitcher Tyler Leibert. He won two games in the North Star Athletic Association tournament, including the championship contest with Dickinson State that advanced Mayville to the nationals. Comet head coach Scott Berry called upon Leibert to start the first game of the nationals and the junior responded beautifully with a full, nine-inning victory! Leibert threw 146 pitches. He allowed just five hits, walked three, struck out 11 and gave up one run. He did hit four batters, and interestingly that is how Madonna got their only run. In the fourth inning Leibert hit the first batter. With the bases loaded he hit another to force in the Michigan team’s only score. The Comet bats were working a little better than their opponents’. They had 12 hits and plated six runs, scoring first with two runs in the top of the fourth. Catcher Zach Mihic led off with a walk. One out later, four consecutive singles by Christian Berry, John Cahill, Darin Stanislawski and Mason Swegarden, the bottom of the order, gave Mayville a lead they never relinquished. Stanislawski and Swegarden drove in the runs. The next inning the Comets garnered two more tallies with two out. Johnny Pistulka had singled. Following him, clean-up hitter Aaron Miller belted a 2-0 pitch out of the park. Continuing the habit of scoring runs in twos, Mayville finished the game off with a pair in the seventh inning. Mihic greeted a Madonna relief pitcher with a base hit. Mallonee did the same. Pistulka laid down a sac bunt to move the runners to second and third. Miller was issued an intentional walk to load the bases, but third baseman Nate Williams drilled a double, scoring two. That was the game. The Comets didn’t run the bases too deftly or they would have scored more, but with Leibert in control when he had to be, the offense gave him enough support for a fine, fullgame victory! With the victory Mayville next faced No. 1-seed Tabor, who was waiting in the wings with a bye. Tabor 8 Comets 0 The Comet bats couldn’t do much against Tabor pitching. They had just five hits and their half of the scoreboard showed a row of nine zeroes. Nine Comet strikeouts and a couple of inning-ending double plays dulled their chances of scoring runs. In all, Tabor turned five double-plays. 24 and had three catches for 31 yards; and Homer Reed gained 26 yards on six carries. Together, quarterbacks Cory Hill, a sophomore, and Jordan Ares, a junior transfer from Sacramento City Junior College, were 25/46 in the air with five touchdowns and two interceptions, totalling 469 yards. Someone had to catch the ball and “Stick,” Dontrel Horne, had eight receptions for 168 yards and three TDs. Ricky Smith caught five balls, had two touchdowns and had a 22-yard rushing TD. Six other receivers had catches, so, Haines stated, it was scattered around pretty good. Haines concluded, “I was very pleased with everything. We made progress and are happy because we feel like we have a good recruiting class to fit in with the guys we have. I feel we have added more athleticism and speed to our program with our recruits.” There are 75 recruits signed, so when they open fall practice Aug. 14, they anticipate having 125-130 players on the roster. The majority of the recruits are high school players with a few “immediate need players,” junior college transfers, thrown in. The Comets’ first game is Sept. 5 at home with rival Valley City State. They have three more home games to follow in September. For one thing, it may mean nice football weather for Comet fans and tailgating. Umm, you can smell those brats now. Haines concluded, “A lot of players played and played hard. We also had a good turnout (at Gate City Field). Must have had 60-100 people show up. It was pretty good so we might keep the game there next year.” Before that good luck next fall!

Mayville used four pitchers, and starter Aaron Dick suffered the loss. He allowed nine hits and four earned runs. Actually, the game didn’t get away that quickly. Tabor scored two in the first and not again until two more in the sixth. So, 4-0 was sill reachable by the Comets. Tabor added one run in the seventh but three killers in the ninth. As mentioned, the Comet bats were pretty quiet; of course, that’s not pretty. Nobody had more than one hit. Mallonee, Pistulka, Williams and Stanislawski were all 1x4. Berry went 1x3. Therefore, Mayville is in the comeback bracket. Bellevue beat William Woods 3-2.
