The Cavemen doubled that in the bottom of the fourth.

His emergence as a solid starting pitcher for the Cavemen has made them one of the favorites for the state title. Title Continued from Page 6 "Jones' fourth-inning at -bat was the key for us. It gave us a cushion cush-ion thick enough for us to hold off Lone Peak in the seventh. "That inning made me nervous. ner-vous. Still I had confidence about who was on the mound for us in the seventh." In the top of the fifth, shortstop Zitting answered Holmstead's one-out, right-field single with a double play that denied the Cavemen a chance for a sixth run. Ingersoll had lots of good reasons to be nervous about the seventh,because of what happened hap-pened in the sixth's lower half. Burgess slugged a solo homer off Baddley. The pitcher was replaced by Mangum. Singling off the Caveman reliever, Zitting came home on a Hunter single hit into left. With the score now reading 54 at the start of the seventh, the final inning opened with Jones flying out to second baseman base-man Newman. Spencer singled into left, only to be snared in a double play turned by Zitting to retire the side. Though the seventh's bottom half opened with Newman flying fly-ing out into left field, Brenden Smith singled into right to keep the Knight cause alive, Parkinson's catch of a Burgess Bur-gess fly ball dealt a hard blow to the Lone Peak threat. Parker eradicated it by grounding out Mendenhall to secure the game and a share of the title for his team. 768-3332 we accept EXIT 1-15 279 empty the bases and finish the tally for the night. Parkinson got a leadoff single in the bottom of the fifth, but the Skyline reliever shut the Cavemen down after that. The fielding effort by the entire en-tire team to back up Holmstead was noteworthy, and can be exemplified ex-emplified by a play at first base in the top of the seventh inning. A hard-hit grounder went to Gentry Bean and pulled him off to his right. He wasn't able to field it cleanly, but he knocked it down and went to his knees to pick it up, then flopped on his belly in the dirt to beat the runner by tagging the bag. That was the second out of the inning, and the game ended when left fielder Taylor Mangum snagged a line drive on the run. "This was a nice win, but we have another game tomorrow," Rewind Continued from Page 6 attack didn't last for long.

Ten minutes into the game, Timberwolf Skyler Dickerson scored the first goal. While Caveman goalie Kyle Eakins held the Timberwolf lead to 1-0 during the next 10 minutes, min-utes, Vogelsberg, Eric Hammer and Jordan McMurtrey guided the Cavemen in finding good places for shot selections.
