Cusick baseball fourth

CUSICK — The Cusick Panthers baseball team lost both their games last week, finishing in fourth place in the Northeast 1B tournament and missing a chance at state.

Waterville-Mansfield got a 10-0 win in the first game Tuesday, May 5 at Chewelah.

“We had a terrible day,” Cusick coach Franklin Pemberton says. “We watched a lot of third strikes. If you don’t swing the bat, you’re not going to win.”

That put them with Garfield- Palouse Saturday, May 9 in a loser-out first game at District 5/6 1B. Cusick got six hits that game and committed no errors, but Garfield-Palouse had 15 hits, closing out the game in the sixth inning. Evan Suess got two hits for Cusick. Daniel Lyon, Judah Sutton, Nick Sandwick, and Thomas Sullivan each got one hit.

Cusick finished the season with a 10-7, 10-2 record, the best in the Northeast 1B North conference.
