Pitching Fuels IHCC Sweep at Muscatine

Muscatine, IA -- Four Indian Hills pitchers combined to allow only five hits in a pair of shutout victories against conference opponent Muscatine CC on Thursday, the Falcons winning 4-0 and 7-0.  The wins push IHCC's winning streak to ten games, all but one of those wins against league foes.

Cashtyn DeLeeuw and Jordan Piche teamed on the mound for Indian Hills in game one, permitting only two hits.  DeLeeuw struck out four and walked four in  going the first five innings.  Piche allowed a hit and fanned  three.

Indian Hills scored their first run on an RBI single by Jason Bonilla in the 4th inning and added three runs in the 6th, the big hit in the inning a two-run double by Adam Deneke.  Deneke, Bonilla and Yuliecer Arias had two hits for the Falcons.

The second game saw Jake Stalzer and A.J. McElderry limit MCC to three hits.  Stalzer allowed two safeties and struck out eight in five innings; McElderry had three Ks in two innings of one-hit relief.

Deneke hit a two-run homer in the 4th, a tape-measure shot to center field.  He also scored a run after being hit by a pitch in a three-run 6th that put the game away.  Arias and Kevin Arroyo each had three hits and Arias drove in two with a bases-loaded single in the 6th.

IHCC is 31-20 and will host Southwestern CC in a four-game series this weekend.
