Six different ‘Cats led the offense, junior Kevin Grenninger going 3-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI. Fellow junior Elek Fravel hit Central Mountain’s first homerun of the year, a 2-run dinger in the fifth inning. Senior Levi Schlesinger continued his recent hot hitting, going 2-for-3 with three RBIs. Singles came from Cru Stover, Braylen Corter and Kelvin Probst.
