After Wilsonville took the first two games of a three games series against the St. Helens Lions Wilsonville looks to end the series on a high note. Wilsonville has been playing very well on both sides of the ball, outscoring St. Helens 22-1 over the first two games of the series. This sentiment was affirmed by Keenan Sanford: “We have been really solid on both sides and if we continue to do that we should have no problems.”

Sanford had a performance for the ages on Tuesday, the first game of the series, when he threw a no-hitter against St. Helens. The senior threw 5 innings and 7 strikeouts to collect his first high school no-hitter. He claimed this after his legendary performance: “It was great. I trusted the defense— they made great plays numerous times and then competed in the strike zone.” Wilsonville cruised to a 10-0 victory.

That Wilsonville success continued Wednesday, where Wilsonville crushed St. Helens 12-1 off the back of a great pitching performance by Justin Schramm. The bats came alive, especially in the third inning, where Wilsonville put up a 4 spot.

Heading into the third and final game of the series, Wilsonville looks to complete the sweep against the Lions and have all the momentum heading into a series against Hillsboro. The last game against St. Helens is on Friday at 5 o’clock.
