Behind the pitching of Wes Persinger, the 10-11 boys defeated Central Point today, 4-2, to finish third in the state tournament.

Boys battle but succumb to Reynolds
If the Pendleton 10-11 boys have proven one thing during the state tournament, it is that their games are going to be exciting. In a back and forth battle today, Pendleton fell to Reynolds, 10-8. Both teams put runs on the board in the sixth inning, Reynolds scoring six to regain the lead and Pendleton coming up with three to make Reynolds nervous about keeping the lead. Marc Rasmussen, James Bradt and Devon Markle worked on the mound for Pendleton. On the offensive side, the top half of the order did most of the damage for Pendleton, with Kyler Lunny, Jon Gonzalez and Wes Persinger recording multiple hits. Coach Scott Roe summed up the game this way: "I was proud of the kids, the way they battled. Unfortunately, our pitching struggled with walks and we had one inning where we fell apart in the field." Reynolds moves on to play for the state championship Saturday. Pendleton will face the loser of tonight's Central Point/Hood River game for third place.

Boys advance to "final four"
Kyler Lunny's bases-loaded infield single in the bottom of the seventh inning drove in James Bradt from third base to give the Pendleton 10-11 boys a 1-0 victory over Hollywood Tuesday night. Lunny also continued his stellar play in center field, making a couple of diving plays to keep the opposing base runners in check. Jake Engelson and Wes Persinger combined for shutout. The win earned Pendleton second place in pool "B" and a spot in the state semi-finals Friday at 4:00 p.m. where they will face the winner of pool "A."

Boys' comeback falls short
In a reversal of Saturday's game, the Pendleton 10-11 boys found themselves at the short end of a close game, losing to Hood River by a score of 4-3. They may need to send someone back to Baker, host of the district tournament, to look for their bats as they came up missing again in today's game. Pendleton's lone hit came on a double to centerfield by Wes Persinger. Despite a lack of offense, Pendleton was still in the game but some sloppy fielding ultimately led to their demise. Marc Rasmussen went the distance on the mound and aided his own cause with an RBI on a sacrifice fly. The boys' next game is Tuesday evening against Hollywood as they fight to finish in one of the top spots in their pool.

10-11 boys open state tourney with a victory
After barreling through the district tournament and defeating each opponent by ten runs or more, the Pendleton 10-11 all-star team was expecting tougher competition at the state level. They weren't disappointed in Saturday's opening-day game as the Medford American team and pitcher Greyson Wolff held the Pendleton offense in check, allowing only a handful of hits. Pendleton proved they were proficient at small ball too, though, stringing together a pair of doubles by James Bradt with a couple of passed balls and infield singles by Andrew Porter and Kyler Lunny to escape with a 2-1 victory. Assistant Coach Jeff Persinger attributed the victory to "great pitching and defense." Jake Engelson started on the mound before moving to shortstop after three innings. James Bradt pitched the last three innings, striking out the final Medford batter with the tying and go-ahead runs on second and third.

11-12 boys head to state
After cruising through the tournament games prior to the championship, some might have wondered how the Pendleton 11-12 boys would respond to playing in a tight game. Alex O'Rourke answered that question with a solo homer in the bottom of the sixth inning that propelled Pendleton past La Grande, 4-3, and on to the state tournament. In addition to that hit, tough pitching from Brady Smith and T.J. Hancock and some nice plays by Logan Anderson at third base helped seal the victory. View the state tournament schedule here.
