Cyclones fall to Golden Eagles

Cyclones fall to Golden Eagles

In their second meeting of the season, the Cyclones faced the tough Rock Valley College Golden Eagles, dropping both games.

GAME 1
Moraine Valley scored all their runs in the sixth inning in an attempt to make a comeback, but fell short 9-3.

The Golden Eagles had some key hits to get on the board while shutting down the Cyclones at the plate. Moraine Valley didn't get a hit until the fifth inning when Nicholas Haran (1-for-2) singled. They were finally able to score after Christian Cardenas (1-for-3) and Jack Hoh (1-for-3) singled and Ethan Lopez walked to load the bases in the sixth. Emmet Barry (1-for-2, 2 RBIs) knocked in two runs with a hard grounder. Arnoldo Velazquez grounded into a fielder's choice but Lopez scored on a fielding error. Although the Cyclones stopped the Golden Eagle offense, they were also halted at the plate after that.

GAME 2
Although the Cyclones collected six hits this game, they didn't score enough in the 10-2 loss.

The runs came from Hoh (2-for-4, 2 RBIs) in the third with two on, and he hit a double to tie the score 1-1. Then in the top of the seventh, Hoh doubled again with one on.
