The Titans offense broke out, beating the Spartans 12-3. Senior Max Ferguson led the way on the mound and at the plate. Ferguson pitched 6 innings, only allowing 3 hits and 3 runs and at the plate Ferguson was 2 for 4 with 2 rbis. Landyn Angelo also contributed a homerun, the Titan’s first as a team, in the blowout win. The Titans had a quick turn around heading to Riverdale on Thursday. Monmouth suffered their second loss of the season to the Rams, falling 10-0. Monmouth Roseville Baseball currently holds a record of 4-6.
Like the baseball team, the Titans softball squad also got things started last week with Riverdale at home at South Park in Monmouth. The Titans took a 18-2 loss to a very good Ram’s ballclub.
