The EP Panther boys hosted highly touted Sterling Newman Monday in Prophetstown and were soundly defeated 19-4 in a 6 inning game.

The Comets started quickly, scoring 6 runs in their first at bat. They added 2 more in their top of the third before EP got on the board in their half. The Panther bunched hits by Evan Steimle, Alastaire Sweetser, and Gavin VanDyke to score 3 times to make it 8-3.

Newman scored 4 more in the fourth and added 7 in the top of the sixth, taking advantage of some Panther errors. They had 12 hits in the contest and the Panthers committed 6 errors. Cade Huisman homered for EP in the sixth, making the final 19-4.

The Panthers take their 4-3-1 record on the road to Bureau Valley on Tuesday, April 14th.
