A crossover SEISC matchup took place in Lone Tree on Friday with the Lion summer teams splitting a doubleheader with Van Buren.
Trailing 5-4 in the fifth, the Lion baseball squad put up a crooked number of six runs that propelled them to a 10-6 victory over the Warriors (5-8). The team had nine hits with Mathew Hemsted going 2-for-4 with three RBI while Cade Shield and Tyler Bell brought in a pair of runs. Shield got the win on the hill tossing four innings surrendering no earned tallies on four hits. They improve to 5-5 overall and 4-4 in the league.
The softball team got down early and it was an uphill climb to an 8-4 loss to the Warriors (4-5). Van Buren managed 11 hits on Lone Tree pitching. The Lions traveled to Thornburg for a tournament the next day and just got one game in before weather cancelled the evening matchups. They had a tall task against No. 4 Collins Maxwell (9-0) and fell 12-1. Lone Tree is now 6-8 overall and 4-5 in the conference.
