Churchill Lancers Baseball 7-6 Portland Christian

A one-run margin made all the difference as Churchill held off Portland Christian 7-6 in a nail-biting baseball contest at home Sunday afternoon. The Lancers managed to scratch across seven runs while their pitching staff withstood a late push from the visiting Eagles to secure the victory. Churchill's offense found timely hitting throughout the game, building enough cushion to weather Portland Christian's comeback attempt. The Eagles mounted pressure in the later innings, plating six runs of their own, but the Lancers' early work proved just enough to hold on for the win. The victory improves Churchill to 4-1 on the season as they continue building momentum in the early portion of their campaign. With strong offensive production and resilient pitching when it mattered most, the Lancers showed the kind of balanced attack that could serve them well as league play approaches. Churchill will look to carry this close-game experience forward as they prepare for their next challenge on the diamond.
