After sweeping the doubleheader on
Tuesday, Holland Christian hosted Byron Center for the third game of
the week. Byron Center jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the
first, but Holland Christian countered with 12 runs in the bottom
half. In that inning, Holland Christian batted around the lineup two
times. Nick Hill scored their first run off of an error. David
Williams tripled to deep centerfield, driving in two more. Sterenberg
followed by driving the run in with an RBI single. With the bases
loaded, Max Wierda grounded to shortstop, but the ball was bobbled
and everyone was safe, including the runner at the plate. Nick Hill
then reached on a fielder's choice, and another run scored. Later,
Mike Mokma was hit by the pitch with the bases loaded.
David Williams earned his fifth RBI of
the game when he doubled in Brandt VanHeest in the second inning.
Casey Meyaard followed with an RBI single. The second inning came to
a close with the Maroons up by a score of 14-1.
Byron Center scored the four runs in
the third inning and three in the fourth. Holland Christian scored
three runs in the bottom of the fourth when Josiah Coleman cleared
the bases with a 3 RBI double. The score was 17-8 going into the
bottom of the fifth. Brandt VanHeest ended up coming home off of a
fielding error, and the game ended 18-8 by mercy rule.
David Williams had a great day
offensively as he went 3 for 3 with five RBIs by hitting a single, a
double, and a triple. Altogether, Holland Christian finished with 14
hits. Holland Christian's record improves to 11-5 on the season, and
are currently on a five game win streak. The Maroons will be back in
action on Tuesday, May 13, as they travel to Unity Christian for a
