Highlights: Oshoniyi and Lyndon’s Jackson Dwyer both threw very well. Lyndon jumped out to an early lead on first-inning doubles from Logan Wheeler and Wyatt Mason. Thetford brought the tying run to the plate in the seventh, but Farrell’s line drive into the right-center field gap was tracked down by Wheeler to end the game.

Coach’s quote: “This was a great test for our players as we head into the playoffs. Lyndon has an excellent team in all phases, and I think we competed hard for all seven innings. Lyndon made some excellent plays in the field to kill a couple of our rallies.” — Thetford’s Kris Keelty
