Baseball
The Braves pulled off are rare accomplishment on Friday. They lost a 1-run back-and-forth game at Dos Pueblos and then became the sole occupants of first place in the LPL. Lompoc, playing during their league bye, benefited from Santa Ynez's 13-0 win over St. Joseph. Sean Rowan's complete game no-hitter dropped the Knights into a three-way tie for second place with Cabrillo & Santa Ynez at 6-3, a half game back of the technically "idle" Lompoc Braves who are now 6-2.
Lompoc The see-saw match at Scott O'Leary Field in Goleta wasn't decided until two out in the bottom of the seventh inning when the Chargers (13-7) scored on an errant throw during a double-play attempt that would have sent the game into extra innings. DP took a two run lead in the first off of freshman starter Ryan Bower, and each squad scored one run in the third, Lompoc's run on Chris Mallory's RBI double. Bower, who in five innings work, gave up 3 runs (2 earned) on 4 hits, and 3 walks, took matters into his own hands in the top of the sixth. He drove an offering from reliever Stephan McFarland over the fence for a three run homer and a 4-3 lead. The Chargers came back with two runs in the bottom half of the inning off LHS reliever Dalton Rouleau. In the top of the seventh, Chris Mallory tripled and scored on a groundout to knot the game up at five all.
The Chargers James McCann led off the bottom of the inning by working an 0-2 count into a walk. Chris Joyce was up next and he hit a high chopper into the hole created when the shortstop covered second on the hit-and-run. With runners on first & third and one out, the Braves gave up the intentional pass to load the bases and set up the force play at home. That strategy worked, as Chito Elias grounded back to Rouleau who threw home for the force out. But the resulting throw from the catcher to first, attempting to double off the runner sailed into the outfield, and Joyce was able to score.
Cabrillo The Conquistadors blew the game open late. They took a 1-run lead in the sixth, and then scored five in the seventh to win going away 6-0. Brian Engler went the distance, surrendering only one hit (a double) and two walks on the day. The seven Cabrillo hits (Aaron Naputi had two), six RBI, and six runs (Thomas Lee two) were scattered throughout the nine man lineup. They also drew four walks, and stole two bases.

Cabrillo's Varsity squad dropped a crucial game at Morro Bay 1-0. The Conq's final three regular season contests are against LPL leaders Templeton, St. Joseph, and Lompoc, and they are now a half game back of Morro Bay for the fourth spot in the league.
Here's the recap from LLR correspondent Dan Aldridge:
The Cabrillo vs. Morro Bay game was definitely a little more exciting than the score shows:
The top of the first inning Kelly Brown reached on a lead off walk, Kelcie Jo Pecyna bunted her to second with what was to be Cabrillo's only base hit of the game. With two runners on base and no outs, Cabrillo couldn't get that all important run across the plate. Cabrillo was kept off balance and guessing the rest of the game at the plate.
On the defensive side, Cabrillo returned the favor. Kiley Shae Aldridge held Morro Bay to one hit as well for the game and middle infielders Alyssa Abayari and Shelby Kuhlman made play after play to keep the Pirates in check. The difference in the game happened in the bottom of the sixth inning when a batter reached on an infield error. The runner then advanced to 2nd on a wild pitch, but didn't stop there. She rounded 2nd and sprinted to third when Bethany Radabaugh threw to Christina Goodchild who was hustling back to cover the bag. Goodchild made the tag in time and the runner was called out. After a deflated Morro Bay crowd came back to their seats, the umpires conferenced and pronounced the runner safe due to obstruction when rounding 2nd base on the play. Two batters later, a line drive to centerfielder Meranda Fernandes was deep enough for the sacrifice fly to score the only run of the game.

Lompoc JV The usually depleted Braves were short even one more player on Thursday. Number 1 singles Wyatt Peterson was called up to the Varsity due to an illness,leaving Coach Jim Steffey with five players instead of the usual nine. Fortunately, St. Joseph only had eight players and agreed to "match-up" with the Braves. Each team fielded three singles and one doubles, with the Knights furnishing a second doubles unit. This meant that Lompoc only forfeited two matches. Unfortunately, it also meant that Lompoc was puting inexperienced reserves against the St Joe juggernaut, and dropped the match 2-11. Carlos Diaz at #1 singles (2-6,2-6,7-5) & the solo doubles unit of Devin Day / Chris Aldama (2-6, 7-5) each won set in tiebreakers.

Ryan Church, after a rare 0-3 outing yesterday, rebounded today with a 1-3 effort. The lone hit however was a triple that put the Mets up 3-2, he then scored on a ground-out to first base. That score proved to be the winning run as New York held on to defeat division foe Atlanta 4-3. Ryan later walked, but was stranded.
Jerrod DeGeorgia's young Souix City Bandits are struggling a bit this year (3-4). But with rival Souix Falls coming up the Coach sez "this isn't Pop Warner" the "young kids need to grow up".
