PREP BASEBALL: Sutton, Pereira, Green spark Vikings

COEUR d'ALENE - Sean Sutton had four hits and drove in five runs and pitched up the win on the mound as the Coeur d'Alene Vikings beat the Lake City Timberwolves 14-2 in a 5A Inland Empire League baseball game on Tuesday at Lake City High.

Cody Garza singled to score Ray Buley in the third inning for Lake City (4-6, 2-3), which travels to Moscow today.
