Tonganoxie rallies to beat Mill Valley
May 8, 2008
Tonganoxie High responded to a Mill Valley sixth-inning rally with one of its own to get an 8-5 Senior Night win on Thursday evening at Leavenworth County Fairgrounds.
The Chieftains led 5-3 after five innings before the Jaguars, who had won six of their previous eight contests, evened the score in the top of the sixth. Bennett Ratzloff scored the first run of the inning on a J. J. Grovenburg single and John Theis scored the tying run when Andy See hit a sacrifice fly to center field.
But THS (12-8) responded with three runs in the bottom of the inning. Ethan Lorrance started things with an infield single and Rob Schlicht reached base when MVHS pitcher Ben Hartman fielded a Schlicht grounder and tried to get the force at second. His throw got into the outfield and Lorrance and Schlicht advanced to scoring position. Blaize Oelschlaeger then plated both runners with a double. Logan Forbis later drove in Oelschlaeger with a single to center field.
See went 2-for-3, had two RBI and scored twice for Mill Valley (9-10). Ethan Appleby also was 2-for-3 and drove in a run.
