Tigers Start 2010 Season Hot

The Trinity Tigers baseball team started the 2010 baseball season off on a good note with a weekend series win over ASC foe Schreiner University. The Tigers took two wins from the weekend with reigning SCAC Pitcher of the Year, Noah Solomon, winning game one and junior Mike Panozzo winning game three. After losing the second game of the Saturday doubleheader it was great to see the Tigers bounce back and take the final game and weekend series from Schreiner. Mike Panozzo was awarded SCAC Pitcher of the Week honors for his dominant start. Highlighting the Trinity offense was junior Kyle Felix who was 4-5 at the plate who sparked the offense to 26 runs over the course of the series.

On Tuesday, the Tigers carried momentum from the weekend series on their road trip to Mary-Hardin Baylor with a 7-0 win. With a young team, early wins are crucial for building confidence and a win over UMHB proved to show the Tigers were up to the challenge. Young sophomore Ben Klimesh was handed the ball for his first start of the season and turned in a dominant performance. Klimesh scattered 6 hits over 9 innings including 9 strikeouts and 4 walks earning his first win of the season. Senior Evan Jones put together a great offensive game for the Tigers going 3-4 with 2 RBI and solid defensive play at first-base.

The Trinity baseball team continued their hot streak into their weekend series with conference rival Austin College. The Tigers swept the weekend series winning the three games 15-3, 12-9, 12-2. Without question, the Tigers bats started hot and have remained hot through the early extent of the season. The Tigers have opened Conference play strong with holding a 3-0 record and they look to continue their early success in the middle part of their season in the coming weeks. In upcoming action the Tigers host Brandeis University from the Boston-area in a three game series starting Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday, followed by next weekend’s conference action at Hendrix in Conway, Arkansas.
