LA COSTA CANYON HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL

The Mavericks kicked off their 2007 season at home with a win over the Great Oak Wolfpack today under sunny skies and strong winds. The game featured solid pitching and defense by both teams; Great Oak scored their lone run in the 5th, with LCC responding in the 6th scoring two runs on RBI doubles by Seniors Grant Allgire and Jack Davidson. LCC’s starting pitcher Senior Chris Brookey received the win going 6 1/3 innings (4K, 1 ER). Senior Sean Soto relieved Brookey in the seventh retiring the next two batters to clinch the victory and his first save of the year. The Mavs defensive play was outstanding with Sophomore Mitch Tybroski making a web-gem diving catch in left field to end the 4th inning. The Mavericks travel to Mira Mesa this Wednesday as they continue play in the Falcon-Pirate tournament.
