Zekl and Dieruf combine for a no-hitter in a win for the Colonels. Game was tied into the 7th, plenty of errors and weird plays, but the Colonels pitching dug deep for the win. Reardon’s solo HR in the 7th got things going.

Life got busy and I couldn’t make it. Looks as if Dixie held close until the 5th inning. Colonels lose 9-2. Moeller pitched their Notre Dame commit. Colonels host CCH Friday night at home.

Atwell commited to WKU for baseball in March. I have heard that is his favorite sport and the school he wanted to play at. Kid is a stud on the ball field.

Dixie Heights jumps into Cincy GCL Big Boy baseball tonight, traveling to Kemcheck Stadium at 5:30. Moeller is the reigning Ohio State Champs, sports a current 17-0 record with 33 game winning streak. They have had several close ones the past few weeks going into over-time but somehow they have been able to overcome and get the W. Moeller's roster holds 5 or so D1 commits. One being Zion Theopolous (LSU) who very well may be a future MLB stud. Who will Dixie pitch? Can they break Big Moe's very impressive streak? I'm trying to make it and will be rooting on the Red Colonels!

There was talk around me about where these pitchers are training in the off season. It was said Dieruf is up in Mason, Oh at OBSA, Wagner w a private unknown coach and Zekl down in Lexington at PPL the past few years. Not sure where the Conner dudes are going.

Nice win by on a beautiful night for the Colonels, bringing them to a 16-2 record. Zekl earned his 6th win (6-0, 7 games pitched) sporting a very low ERA. Team ERA is top 5 in the state. Dieruf w a 2R HR and Reardon w 2 hits, 2 RBIs. Everett Hall took the loss w 6 ER. The two meet up again for a fourth time this weekend.

Really nice showing by the Dixie Colonels last night. Thomas Gemeinhardt with the 7 inning complete game. Sean Mitchell went 3 for 3 with 2 RBIs. Kaiden Robbins took the L for SK. Pioneers play Cooper next and Dixie meets NCC, both in the Doc Morris Invitational this week/weekend.

Cov Cath looked comfortable all night at the final game for the Mike Epplen “Dirty Hat Classic” at TMU/Florence Ya’lls Stadium. Eli Wagner went 6 impressive innings for the W and Charlie Dieruf came in to close it out. Alex Yuskewich was dominate at the plate, going 3 for 3 and an RBI. Carson Shea looked good but got the L, staying in for 5 innings.

I agree and hate it for the team. He’s a great football stud. Heard he’s trying to follow in Dads footsteps (Casey was in Reds minors until injury) with baseball and will play fall baseball. Word is he can throw 90mph but I haven’t seen him on the mound this year for CCH.

I’m thinking this will be a pretty equal match up. Will really depend on starting pitchers. I’m trying to make this and the cch-St Henry game tomorrow night.

CCH Senior, Caden Miller, has announced he'll take a Gap/Prep School year at Moravian Prep in NC. Miller was D1 POY and joined the 1,000 pt club this year. I believe he had offers from Arkansas and EKU with interest from UC and XU. Wondering what the extra year of play will do for his recruiting? I am unfamiliar with Moravian and the Overtime Elite leage.

Game started and went into 3 innings until it was called. Played in way too hard of rain imo. A bat went flying out of a batters hands , felt bad for both pitchers. Colonels w two sloppy wet errors. CCH was up 3-2 in the 3rd. Zekl w 2 hits, 4Ks , 0 ER Robbins 3 hits, 3ks, 3ER Not sure if it’ll be made up or not as they do meet again soon,

#3 SK faces #4 Covington Catholic this Wednesday.

Great game in Park Hills with a big crowd tonight! Eli Wagner, got the W, he looked great on the bump after being injured last season. Dieruf closed it out, got the Save, looking sharp, striking out 3 of 5 batters. Ryle’s Eppley w the L, also pitched Curry, Mann and McIntyre. Zekl had the lone hit for the Colonels and 2RBI. CCH is now 10-0 Ryle 4-5

Bradley Zekl wins Cincy Reds MVP of the game and will be honored onfield at a Reds game with other local high schoolers. Great event last night with the Reds providing announcers, Skyline games and giveaways, etc. Zekl put on a clinic, hurled a complete game, 2 hits........no runs, no walks, no wild pitches. CCH moves to 9-0 and takes on Ryle on Friday.
