Staff Report
Senior Matt
Bischoff threw a one-hitter and faced the minimum 21 hitters in leading Class
3A No. 7 New Haven to a 6-0 win over Fort Wayne Dwenger May 29 in a Fort Wayne
Luers Sectional opening-round game.
Bischoff
retired the first 18 batters he faced before surrendering a leadoff single in
the seventh. Never fear, though — battery mate and younger brother Kyle
immediately took care of that problem by picking the Dwenger runner off first.
The elder
Bischoff ended the contest with 13 strikeouts.
The
Bulldogs� offensive punch came from No. 9 hitter Troy Waldelich, who took
advantage of the large dimensions in center field at Indiana Tech Stadium to
leg out a second-inning, inside-the-park home run.
The
victory lands New Haven in a Thursday sectional semifinal matchup with Fort
Wayne Concordia Lutheran, and 11-2 Monday winner over host Luers, and keeps
alive the highly anticipated possibility of a Friday finals showdown between
the Bulldogs and eighth-ranked Bellmont.
