After having their season opener cut short by weather last weekend, 18U came ready to work, taking 2nd place in this weekend’s JP Sports Harvest Havoc.

On the mound, Luke Featherston delivered one of the weekend’s biggest performances, throwing a 6-inning no-hitter with 9 strikeouts and just 1 walk on 77 pitches.
The pitching staff allowed just 13 hits and a .166 BAA, with strong outings from Luke, Colton Perkins, Tyler Ernst and Ace Perkins.

Honorable Mention
Braxton Nelle was a brick wall behind the plate, controlling the game and supporting his pitchers any way he could. In the championship game he stepped up, throwing 3 innings of relief, allowing 0 hits and 0 runs while mixing in 20 knuckleballs over 31 pitches.
It was a great weekend of baseball and we have plenty to build on.
