CANANDAIGUA, N.Y. - In the teams' last matchup, the Thunderwolves would hand the Lakers one of two losses in Little Falls, N.Y., ending their Region III championship run in the double-elimination round. The team entered today's matchup against the Thunderwolves looking to hold an advantage in the season series. However, some stout defensive plays and pitching ultimately led to a doubleheader sweep, in favor of the Thunderwolves.

Despite a strong performance at the mound, the Lakers struggled to string together scoring opportunities, with Devin Kelly (Clifton Springs, N.Y./ Midlakes) and Alfredo Hurtado (Davie, F.L./ Chaminade Madonna College Prep) would combine for 2 hits on the game to round out game 1.
A Thunderwolves left-field single in the top of the 3rd inning proved to be the decisive run of the game, en route to a tight 1-0 victory in favor of Niagara County Community College.
Game 2
The Lakers hitting struggles extended into game two, with the Lakers designated hitter Tim McClare (Macedon, N.Y./ Gananda) tallying the lone hit in the column.
