Prep baseball…
Siuslaw came away from the first day of the North Marion tournament with a split… winning the opener, then falling in the nightcap. Jake Thompson threw a seven-inning-one-hit-17-strikeout-complete game for a three-run shutout of host North Marion. The Vikings managed five hits in the effort, including a Joe Dotson triple.
The Vikings fell to Hidden Valley 4-1 in the nightcap… a game that was ended early because of darkness. Ryan Smith took the loss on the mound, throwing all four innings for Siuslaw. He also led the Vikings 5-hit effort with a double.
Siuslaw will play Valley Catholic today at noon.
On the softball diamond…

On the college diamond…
Number 12 Oregon came away from a midweek non-conference game against Portland with a 5-1 win at PK Park. Mitchell Tolman had a three-run double in the bottom of the seventh to break a 1-1 tie.
