The Comeback Kids

The Agoura Chargers post two comeback wins in the Ventura/Los Alamitos Baseball Tournament.

BASEBALL

  • The Agoura Chargers Varsity baseball team began non-conference play Monday in the Ventura/Los Alamitos Tournament. Agoura was coming off of a two-game losing streak and was looking to rebound with a win.  They were first matched up against a tough Notre Dame Knights team. The Chargers started slow and found themselves at a 7-0 deficit with one inning remaining. They pulled together and miraculously posted eight runs in the bottom of the seventh, edging the Knights 8-7.  Junior infielder, Mark Seyler, hit the game-winning two-out single that brought in two runs. Stellar performances by Tyler Cohen, who went 2-3 and scored two runs off of errors; and Justin Cana, who went 1-3 with two RBI's, helped the Chargers capture a much needed win. 
  • The Agoura Chargers battled the Ventura Cougars in its second tournament game on Tuesday. Agoura broke the tie in the bottom of the sixth inning when freshman, Albee Weiss, blasted a two-run homerun. Agoura never relinquished the lead, posting a 9-7 victory over the Ventura Cougars in non-conference play. The Chargers were lead by Albee Weiss and Justin Cana who combined for five hits, including two doubles, two RBI's and a home-run. The Agoura Chargers now have an overall record of 9-13 and 3-7 in league. Agoura's next game is Wednesday, May 4, against the Thousand Oaks Lancers at 3:30 p.m.
