An eventful season has come to an end for the Kentucky Wesleyan Baseball Team. The Panthers fell 5-0 to the Findlay Oilers in the consolation bracket of the G-MAC tournament.
Kentucky Wesleyan closes their season at 21-31 (15-17 G-MAC) while Findlay improves to 30-21 (20-12 G-MAC) and move to to take on Walsh in the second round of the consolation bracket. This was Head Coach Todd Lillpop’s 10th straight trip to Prasco for the G-MAC tournament, having made it every year since joining the conference.
The Panthers managed to scatter five hits in the game, but the timely hits weren’t there, as they left eight runners on base throughout the contest. The Oilers were methodical in the win, scoring two runs in the second, one in the fifth, and two more in the eighth to secure the win.
Cameron Langston was the only Panther with multiple hits in the game, going 2-for-4 in the contest. Aric Lyons, Jaret Humphrey and Kyle Werries also recorded a hit in the contest.
Despite the loss, freshman Evan Oakley (6-5) didn’t shy away from the bright lights of Prasco, striking out five and allowing just five hits and two earned runs in seven innings on the mound.
