Moore League Teams Take a Hit

Lakewood and Wilson will meet in the Loara Tournament Saturday, March 12 at Glover Stadium in La Palma at 3PM, but it will not be for first place. Both schools were defeated in the semi-finals and will play each other for 3rd place.

It was just one of those days for the Lancers. Lakewood fell behind 3-0 in the top of the second, and gave up another four in the top of the fourth—that’s where it stayed until a nightmare seventh inning that saw them giving up 12 runs in their eventual 19-0 loss to Vista Murrieta.

Wilson (3-1) was locked up in a tough 1-0 contest with top ranked Edison until the 6th inning, when Edison rolled a 7. The Bruins did manage to push 2 runs across in the 7th but came up short losing 8-2.

The Rams fell to 1-3 with this loss to Woodbridge. Millikan took an early 1-0 lead in the top of the first, but gave it away in the bottom of the same inning, then fell behind 4-1 in the third, and struggled to stem the tide defensively. The Rams will try to bounce back on Saturday against Diamond Bar.
