BASEBALL

Snow and rain wiped away all of the scheduled baseball and softball games in the Greater Akron area on Monday.

Inclement weather did not sideline the St. Vincent-St. Mary baseball team, which was able to play two games Monday during its Spring Break trip at the Cal Ripken Experience in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

STVM (8-2) won both games, defeating Carvers Bay (South Carolina) 15-0 and Hilton (New York) 4-3. The victories came after STVM topped Girard (Pennsylvania) 12-2 Saturday in its first game in the Cal Ripken Experience.

Irish pitcher Nick Cody limited Carvers Bay (7-6) to one hit in a five-inning shutout in Monday's opener. Michael Bronowski hit a grand slam home run, walked three times and scored four runs.

STVM's other key hitters against Carvers Bay were Devon Lehman (single, double, two runs, two runs batted in); Shane Adamczyk (two singles, two runs, two RBI); Nathan Lenz (single, three runs, RBI) and Aistis Miskinis (single, two RBI).

Andrew Reynolds pitched a complete game in STVM's victory over Hilton (5-1). Ty Williams hit a double and a solo home run and scored two runs. Lenz contributed a triple, a run and an RBI.

STVM started the trip to Myrtle Beach with its victory over Girard (Pennsylvania) on Saturday. Connor Christie pitched five innings and earned the win, Lehman smacked a triple, had two RBI and scored one run and Lenz hit a double, had two RBI and scored one run. Nick Tura finished with a single, a double, an RBI and a run, and Bronowski and Miskinis both scored two runs.
