Aquinas Edges Central In Extra Rough Baseball Half
Aquinas took an early 1-0 lead as Dave Strittmaier opened with a sharp single and Bill Lathrop drove in the run. Central answered with a 3 in the bottom of the first, aided by two errors and a misplayed throw, then pulled ahead 3 2 before Wohlert settled in. A late miscue and timely hits by Aquinas tied the game, and two costly errors by Central in the hectic first inning opened the door for Aquinas to pull off the upset in a 7 to 3 win.
