EDWARDS AND HURST LEAD BEAR RIVER ALL-STAR

In the opening round match-up between the Bear River Little League's and Foresthill Little League's 10/11 All-Star teams, it was the pair of Calebs who's stars shined the brightest under the scorching Lincoln sun. While it was Bear River's early offensive output that led to a 5 run first inning which lifted BR to a 13-2 victory. 

It was Caleb Edward's and Caleb Hurst's savvy if not dominant pitching performance that kept the Foresthill squad in check from the first pitch to the last. The Calebs combined for 7 K's over a 4 inning spread, allowing only 4 hits and three walks in the process. 

On the offensive side, it was also a tale of two Calebs with Edwards going 2 for 4 including a monster double off the fence in left center, while Hurst added 2 hits of his own in 3 at-bats, while delivering a team-leading 3 RBI's. Other Bear River players that got in on the hit parade contributing an additional 6 RBI's included Porter Elliott, Ryan Bradford, Dylan Scott, Brekyn Vasquez, Alex Bohn and Jeremy Rodrigues.

 It was a solid all around effort for the entire Bear River team which was aided by sound defense along with 5 stolen bases in the contest. 

With the victory, the Bear River 10/11 team will move to the next round where they will face the winner of Saturday night's Rocklin vs Lincoln game.
