The Glen Oaks Community College baseball team has won five of its last six games following Friday's sweep over Edison State in Kokomo, Ind.
Even though a five-run lead in Game 1 evaporated by the end, Glen Oaks held on for the win. Edison State closed the gap by scoring on a single, an error, and a single for three runs in the top of the seventh inning. Trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the first, the Vikings scored five runs a commanding lead that would hold up. Jackson Stewart went 6 and 1/3 innings for the win. He allowed six hits, one earned run and struck out seven batters.
In Game 2, the Vikings rallied from a 5-3 deficit in the bottom of the seventh with three runs for the victory. Braeden Becker walked to start the inning and eventually moved to second on a wild pitch. An error advanced Becker to third with no outs before Jayden Hamilton walked to put runners on the corners. Daniel Vizthum replaced Hamilton on first and advanced to second on an error and Becker scored to get within a run. Corbin White singled to right to score Vizthum to tie the game at 5-5 with one out. Steven Drewyor stepped up and delivered a game-winning grounder to left that scored White. Tyler Norris tossed the final three innings for the win, giving up three hits and two earned runs with a strikeout.
Hamilton finished with three hits on the day with an RBI, and Peyton Simmons and Drewyor both had two hits and a pair of RBIs. White added a hit and drove in two runs, while Cohen Yoder had three steals.
