The Cyclones scored 10 runs in their doubleheader with Elgin Community College, but still dropped both on the road.
GAME 1
Moraine Valley scored all their runs in the fourth inning, losing the matchup 15-4.
Dimitri Spatharakis (1-for-3, RBI) scored the first run on an RBI single after Niko Mastoras (1-for-3) lined to get on base and Jack Hoh reached first on a fielding error. With two outs, Christian Cardenas was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Arnoldo Velazquez (1-for-2, 2 RBIs) singled to right field to score two more runs. Emmet Barry (1-for-1, RBI) scored the final run on a line drive to center.
GAME 2
Moraine Valley collected 12 hits in the second game, scoring half in the 15-6 loss.
It was just one rough first inning where the Spartans scored 11 runs before the Cyclones shut down their offense. Nick Haran (2-for-3, 4 RBIs) got his team on the board in the top of the third inning on a two-run homerun after Hoh (1-for-4, RBI) doubled. When the Spartans came up, John Dytrych (5 strikeouts, 2 walks) struck out two and forced another batter into a ground out for a quick at-bat. Jayden Armstrong (2-for-4) then started the inning for the Cyclones with a double, and Jaylun Camper (1-for-4, RBI) scored him on a double of his own. Kevin Golinski (1-for-2) walked and Cardenas (2-for-4) singled to load the bases for Hoh, who grounded out but still scored one. Haran hit a two-run double to give the Cyclones six runs.
The Spartans scored their final two runs in the bottom of the fourth, and the Cyclones were able to get a few more singles and doubles, but not enough to score any more.
