Junior Kory Kohlwes heads for third on his fifth inning triple.

 

Dylan Davis's second inning grand slam capped a 6-run second inning as Redmond cruised past LW 9-2 in the KingCo playoff opener on Saturday.  The loss puts the Kangs one loss away from elimination, as they must win three straight tournament games to have a shot at the State tournament. 

 

The Kangs had numerous chances to get back into the game following the Mustangs' big inning.  They left nine men on base, including seven in the final three innings.  They finally broke through in the fifth with back-to-back RBI singles by Alex Donnelly and Colin Tremblay.  However, they would leave two runs on in that inning and watch Redmond tack on a run in the bottom of the fifth and two more in the sixth to pull away. 

 

Donnelly finished the night 2-for-4 with an RBI and Kory Kohlwes tripled and scored a run for Lake Washington.  They will put their season on the line Monday night, when they take on Newport at 7:00 pm at Inglemoor HS in the loser’s bracket of the KingCo tournament.
