PREP ROUNDUP: Ceballos, McKinney help Lakeland sweep Moscow
* BASEBALL
RATHDRUM - Lakeland senior pitcher Dustin Ceballos struck out 13 batters on 89 pitches in the first game and Jeremy McKinney went 4 for 4 with three RBIs and three runs scored in the second game for the Lakeland Hawks, who swept a 4A Inland Empire League doubleheader 9-1 and 12-2 from the Moscow Bears at Gorton Field on Thursday.
"Dustin was just dealing all day," Lakeland coach Jason Bradbury said. "He hasn't pitched a bunch and came up as a catcher. We'd noticed before the season that he hadn't thrown much, but he threw a good bullpen and we kind of needed him at Lewiston. He threw well, so we gave him the start tonight. He's kind of a like a diamond in the rough. I was really proud of how he performed."
Troy Carr hit a three-run home run in the fourth inning and Kris Jackson went 3 for 4 with three runs scored and two RBIs the in second game for Lakeland (12-3, 4-0 4A IEL), which hosts Sandpoint on Saturday at noon.
Moscow is 4-8, 2-2.

Cramer finished 2 for 4 for two RBIs for Timberlake (9-6), which plays an Intermountain League doubleheader at Kellogg on Saturday.

St. Maries (9-2) tied it at 5 in the fourth, on an RBI single by Dillon Michael and a sacrifice fly by D.J. Turner.
Trying to tie it up in the seventh, St. Maries had a runner thrown out at home on a squeeze play, then had the next two batters strike out.
"It was a game of missed opportunities for us," Tefft said.
