Facing Kee High (3-1, 2-0 UIC), the defending Class 1A runner-up from a year ago, the Turkey Valley (0-2, 0-2 UIC) suffered a pair of losses in the opener Tuesday night 6-0 and 7-3 in New Albin.
“We pitched fairly well and played good defense. Our offense will be there we just need more live at-bats. Kee is a very good baseball club that is deserving of their No. 1 ranking,” said Coach Dan Stepan.

In game one, the Hawks put together a solid line-up, collecting six runs on 11 hits while limiting the visiting Trojans to just one single by Calvin Bodensteiner in the second frame. Chase Hayek took the loss on the mound, giving up three runs on seven hits and three walks.
Game two stats were unavailable due to an error in the software Turkey Valley utilizes.
