The 3 game winning streak comes to an end as Woods Cross defeats Grantsville 6-1. Backed by some strong pitching the Wildcats held the Cowboy offense in check. The Cowboys threatened in the first as Drew Sutton reached on an error & Andrew Nelson ripped a single up the middle to put runners on first and second with one out, but the Wildcat hurler worked his way out of trouble by striking out the next 2 Cowboy hitters to end the inning.
Down 2-0 the Cowboys got on the board in the 3rd using a Lincoln Kelley single and stolen base and a Nelson RBI-double to cut the lead to 2-1. Skyler Cloward drew a walk to put runners on first & third with one out, but the Woods Cross pitcher was able to once again thwart the threat by striking out the next two hitters to get out of the jam.
Nelson got the start on the mound and went the distance taking the loss. He pitched well but didn't get enough defensive help to keep the Cowboys within striking distance.
The Cowboys will next take the field in Delta on Wednesday March 22. Game time is set for 3:30.
