Reardan's Noah Meyer rounds third base and heads home during the Indian's doubleheader split with Lind-Ritzville/Sprague April 17.

RITZVILLE - The Reardan Indians traveled to Ritzville to face the Broncos in a double header on the Bob Heider Memorial Field Saturday, April 17.

The Indians won the first game 10 - 5. The Broncos came back for a win in the second game, 11-9.

Broncos on the mound for the first game were Owen Telecky for five innings and Chase Galbreath for two.

"We're still a pretty young team, with pretty inexperienced pitchers. We've got just a couple pitchers who have pitched before," Lind-Ritzville-Sprague Head Coach Jason Hilzer said. "We had a couple mental errors which cost us a couple runs in the first game. In the second game, we didn't make as many mental errors," Hilzer said. "We put the ball in play and when you do that, you end up getting runs and we got a victory."

Reardan Head Coach Matthew Clouse said he was glad to see the boys playing baseball again.

"These boys are fun to watch play. I thought they did well considering we only had five practices. I was pretty proud of what they did," Clouse said. "Aiden Kieffer had a strong outing on the mound, pitching five strong innings and pitched his way out of several jams. Caden Day came in and cemented the win, pitching the bottom of the seventh."

Pitching for the Reardans in the second game was Day for two innings, Nelson for 1.67 and Tate Nelson for 2.33.

The Broncos manned the mound with Drew Kelly for three innings and Jay Harder for four.

"The bats for Lind-Ritzville awakened this game, and we couldn't quite keep up," Clouse said. "Caden Day, Abe Nelson and Tate Nelson combined to record 13 strikeouts in the game."

In the first game, Telecky had 12 strikeouts for the Broncos and Galbreath had four.
