Melcher-Dallas was unable to make the Eagles pay for ten errors and was outhit 14-7. Trevor Hock and Reece Chiabotta got two hits, each while Logan Godfrey drove in three runs. After beating East Union 15-14 on Saturday, both the Saints and Eagles Softball Squads combined for 35 runs in a 20-15 East Union win. Both teams had huge innings as Melcher-Dallas seemed to take control in the 5th with eight runs to lead 14-8, but the Eagles outscored the Saints 12-1 the rest of the way. Both teams rapped out 14 hits, each. Paetyn Anderson had an incredible night at the plate, homering three times, twice in Melcher-Dallas’s eight run 5th and drove in seven runs. Kasyn Reed also smashed a homer and drove in two. Both Saints squads travel to Moulton-Udell tonight.
