2016 Pincher Creek Hawks High School Baseball Team |
Matthew Halton High School's Hawks baseball team played their first game of the 2016 season with a game against the Crowsnest Panthers at Sproule Field in Pincher Creek on the evening of April 12. The field was in rough shape but the weather was relatively balmy, except for a stiff wind. The Hawks won the game in 5 innings, 12-2. According to the league's rules, a team wins after 5 innings if they've established a 10 point or greater lead.
The teams were tied at two runs each after the first inning, which was followed by a no-score second inning. The Hawks scored 10 runs in the third and held their lead to the end of the top of the 5th. Tyson Goodreau performed well for the Hawks on the mound and at bat, throwing 14 strikeouts and no walks, earning two RBIs on one hit, and doubling in the third. Two RBIs from Mitchell Zoratti and a two-run double by Deloy Mackenzie, all in the third, clinched the Hawk's definitive lead. Scoring for the Panthers in the first inning were Chase Snider and Ty Anctil. It was the second game and second loss of the season for the Panthers.
