Badger players celebrate after winning 8-0 against East
Troy.
Badger baseball pulled off an 8-0 win during a windy Wednesday night non-conference game April 8 against East Troy at Jonas Field.
Senior Ryan Albanese led the team with a 3 RBI double.
"Ryan is stepping up there, a senior, you know, taking control of the game there, and I think he really, that hit really turned the game for us," Head Coach Nick Hughes said. "So, kind of, you know, deflated the other team a little bit."
Junior Matt Jensen pitched most of the 7 innings and senior Owen Skilling closed out the game for the Badgers.
First baseman Caden Creighton, a senior, made big plays that kept East Troy from making it far around the diamond.
"It's Caden's first time ever playing first base this year, you really didn't know what to expect coming into the year, and he's handled it great." Hughes said. "He's made almost every single play that's getting thrown at him and you can tell each game he's getting a little bit more confident there and it's starting to click for him a little bit there.
"We're starting to play well. We played a clean game today, didn't make a single error, and the pitchers threw strikes, especially with a windy day like this. We're, you know, just taking it game by game."
The Badgers fell to Wilmot Union 17-14 on April 9.

The Big Foot/Williams Bay soccer co-op opened their home season against Wilmot Union High School with a big 10-0 win for the Chief-Dogs on Monday, April 6.
BF/WB Senior Sophia Stewart led her team in scoring with three goals and senior Mya Gonzalez scored two goals to make up half of the goals scored.
Fellow senior Haylie Wanat, juniors Kaylie Patterson and Janet Castaneda, sophomore Zuleimy Martinez, and freshman Amalya Gonzalez also each had one goal in the game.
Head Coach Rene Perez said that the game was a good start to the season, with some injuries and loss of seniors from last season on the defensive side of the ball, they are putting some pieces together but overall proud of the win.
"We're missing a few on our attack, but everybody kind of stepped up today," Coach Perez said. "I think every goal was kind of off an assist or a nice shot from the 18."
On the defensive side, junior Lucia Martinez and senior Gracie Price led the team of defenders with their communication.
"I thought defensively, we just controlled the whole game and everything else," Coach Perez said. "I thought everyone did a really good job."
