Orangeville loses its first of the season, Eastland and Le-Win look strong

Orangeville started off pretty well to start the season on a 4-0 streak.

That ended tonight in a 5-2 loss to likely the best team in our area -- East Dubuque. The Warriors won the regional last year and appear to be just as strong this year.

That was a loss that could hurt their chances early in the NUIC-East.

Milledgeville/Polo and Dakota right now still appear to be the favorites.

But, wow, what a game from both Eastland and Lena-Winslow!

Brian McCabe had a grand slam in a 13-4 drubbing against Rockford Lutheran. It appears the Panthers' hitting could be a threat if they play more games like that.

Eastland also lit up the scoreboard in a 13-1 win.

Three players had multiple hits.

It'll be interesting to see who comes out of the NUIC-West this year.
