SHORTS Teton hurlers have strong weekend MILES CITY, Mont. - The Williston State College men’s baseball team went 3-1 over the weekend. The Tetons topped Prairie Baseball Academy 6-5 and shut out Trinity Bible College 5-0 Friday, then defeated Northland Community College 5-1 before falling to host Miles Community College 3-0 Saturday. “We played pretty well, we just struggled a bit offensively. Our pitching was good and our defense was pretty solid. If our hitting comes around, we’ll really be competitive,” said WSC coach Kelly Heller. Heller said the Tetons didn’t see too many extra base hits over the weekend, but Chad Nixey did belt a home run. In the 6-5 win over PBA, the Tetons won on a wild pitch in the bottom of the seventh, while K.C. Harris came on in relief to get the win on the hill. In the 5-0 win over TBC, Pearce McDonald was the winning hurler, and Chris Norquay had a couple of hits. Against Northland, McHale Maristuen hit the first batter and walked the second as a couple of subsequent ground balls allowed a run. He held Northland hitless until the No. 9 man spoiled the no-hitter with two outs in the top of the seventh. Against MCC, Norquay pitched well, but couldn’t get any run support.
