Raymond-South Bend 2, Elma 1

In a game that didn’t disappoint, Raymond-South Bend edged past Elma 2-1 in a battle of two of the 1A Evergreen League’s top teams on Friday at Davis Field in Elma.

The Ravens (7-0, 7-0 1A Evergreen) took a lead early when Adam Mora was brought down inside the box and awarded a penalty kick. Mora scored on the PK to put RSB up 1-0 in the third minute.

The Eagles (5-2-1, 5-1-1) responded when midfielder Ivan Rodriguez sent a corner toward midfielder Jordan Kain, who headed the ball in to knot the game at 1-1 in the second half.

Late in the game with RSB applying pressure in the box, Jose Ramirez struck a shot into the net for the go-ahead goal in the 72nd minute.

RSB held off Elma the rest of the way to pick up a key league victory.

“It was a great game and a great win,” Ravens head coach Joe Keegan said. “We knew it was going to be a hard fought game.”

“It was a real high-level played game. Very physical and fast paced,” Elma head coach Carson Seaberg said. “They came out on top but we missed taking the lead just a few minutes after our goal when we hit the cross bar and the ball came almost straight down, just missing going in and then the follow up pushed a little wide.”

With the win, RSB remains in first place in the league standings with 21 points, two ahead of Montesano.

Elma drops to third place with the loss with 16 points.

The Ravens host Forks in a league matchup at 7 p.m. on Thursday in South Bend.

Elma will be back in action when they face Forks at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 14 in Forks.

Wahkiakum 15, Ocosta 7

Ocosta struggled to keep Wahkiakum off the base paths in a 15-7 loss in the first game of a doubleheader on Friday in Westport.

The Wildcats (4-4) trailed 4-0 before scoring two runs against the Mules (4-3) on an RBI ground out by Caden Arbona and a run-scoring double from outfielder Rustyn Quinby.

But six Mules runs in the top of the fourth to take a commanding 10-2 lead.

Ocosta would add a pair of runs in the fourth on a Torence Bonina single and three in the seventh thanks in large part to six walks in the frame.

But it wasn’t enough as the Mules would collect 11 hits and draw 14 walks against Ocosta pitchers.

Quinby went 2-for-2 with a double, a run scored and three RBI for the Wildcats.

“It was a beautiful day for golf and a great experience for our team,” Hoquiam head coach Brooke Bogdonovich said. “Montesano was a fantastic group to play against, they were supportive and helpful to our young players. I am already seeing so much growth in our golfers, both in their skills and their confidence. It’s been especially fun to watch them achieve their own personal victories out on the course. I’m excited to see how they continue to improve as the season goes on.”
