Athlete of the Week a hurler and hitter
Siuslaw and Mapleton baseball standout Gabe Simington is Coast Radio Sports’ Athlete of the Week. The big sophomore threw six innings of three-hit ball and struck out five in Friday’s Viking victory over the Douglas Trojans. In other games last week, he hit a long home run and was two-for-two with two doubles… both of which went to the warning track.
Honorable mention is Siuslaw’s Trent Reavis who set a new school record in the Discus with a throw of 160-feet, 2-inches at the Central Coast Invitational. That eclipsed the previous mark of 158-10 set in 2003 by Josh Thomas.
On the schedule today…
Siuslaw baseball is slated for a home game against South Umpqua at five… if weather and field conditions permit. The pregame show is on KCST at 4:45. Viking softball will be in Myrtle Creek for a five o’clock game against the Lancers.
Oregon and Oregon State are set for non-league baseball in Corvallis this afternoon at 5:30. That game will air on KCFM with the pregame show at 5:00.
