Young Monmouth-Roseville Baseball Squad Peaking at Right Time?

Share

The Monmouth-Roseville Titan baseball team has had their fair share of close games this season, with much of their games being decided by 2 runs or less. Monmouth-Roseville has three games left in the regular season before heading to Carthage on Monday for an IHSA class 2A first round regional matchup with the long-time rivals, Illini West Chargers. The youth-laden Titans are currently (5-14) but have wins in two of their last three games coming into tonight’s game at (19-5) Orion. Those wins were against teams that were regional champions last spring, United and Knoxville. With only one senior and a plethora of sophomores contributing, the Titans are a better team right now than they were at the start of the season, simply due to more varsity experience. Titan baseball coach Jordan Ball said as much during his weekly WRAM Morning Show interview on Wednesday morning.
