PREP ROUNDUP: Trojans, Vikings split in 5A IEL play

• BASEBALL

COEUR d’ALENE — Preston Benson drove in two runs in the first game and Jake Pfennigs struck out four in 5 1/3 innings as the Post Falls Trojans beat the Coeur d’Alene Vikings 9-4 in the first game of a 5A Inland Empire League doubleheader on Friday at Ted Page Field.

Later, Jackson Sumner struck out five as the Vikings topped the Trojans 6-1 to earn the split.

“We just had a case of being a little too overconfident in the first game and committing too many errors,” Coeur d’Alene coach Nick Mahin said. “Jackson did a great job in the second game of throwing strikes.”

Coeur d’Alene scored four of its six runs with two outs in the respective innings.

“We’ve been doing a great job with timely hitting this year,” Mahin said. “Any time you can get runners in scoring position and get some runs, it’s a good thing. Post Falls hurt us in the first game with runs with two outs. With each loss, it’s a learning experience. You’ve got to play each game one pitch at a time, and I told the kids you’re only as good as your last game.”

Coeur d’Alene (12-4, 5-1 5A IEL) plays at Lake City on Tuesday.

Post Falls (12-6, 2-4) hosts Lewiston on Tuesday.

Lake City (9-5, 2-2) plays at Lewiston (10-3, 1-3) today.

Andrew Neilson went 2 for 2 with two runs scored for Lakeland (6-10, 2-2 4A IEL), which travels to Sandpoint on Tuesday.

“It was really nice to get the win in the second game and even the season series at two games apiece,” Lakeland coach Jason Bradbury said. “Andrew was a huge spark for us. Every time he got to the plate, he hit the ball really hard. Ryan, Jared and Max (who went 2 for 4) hit the ball extremely well in this one.”

In the opener, Dylan Bradbury and McDaniel drove in two runs each for Lakeland, which is tied with Sandpoint in the league standings at 2-2. Moscow finished league play 4-4 after Thursday’s doubleheader.

POST FALLS — The host Trojans swept in mixed doubles against the Bengals at Post Falls High.

“Meaghan (McLeod) and Hunter (Schertz) have been playing together all year and really starting to solidify their pairing,” Post Falls coach Kirk Hartzell said. “I was really happy with Brooklyn (Nikula) and Dakota (Melton). Definitely for us, the surprise was Vidi (Kaufman). She started really strong and won the first set, but just ran out of gas. For her first varsity match, she did a great job.”

Post Falls hosts Lake City on Tuesday.
