Von hangs on to defeat Lincoln Park 7-5 in JRN conference play. Kayin Timble drove in 2 runs for the Panthers. George Allen and Jalen Travis recorded 2 hits each. Von resumes its suspended game with Taft tomorrow at 2pm. Go Panthers! @cplathletics MikeClarkPreps @vonsteubenmsc

Taft comes from behind and wins at Whitney Young led offensively by Butcher, Rodriguez and Nunez. Nunez’s grand slam put the Eagles ahead. Marr earns the W with 4 strong innings and French gets the save. ⁦Taft Athletics⁩ ⁦MikeClarkPreps⁩ ⁦Chicago Public League Athletics⁩

We fell to Jones 6-4 at home tonight. Jr Antonio Licea threw well and deserved a better fate - 5 ip, 5 runs (1 earned), 9 k’s. So Juan Barrientos went 2-4 with a HR and 3 RBI. We’ll travel to their place Monday
