Marion scored 14 runs in the first inning and rolled past Mount Vernon, 15-0, in a four-inning game in the consolation bracket of the Bob Vrbicek Metro Tournament at Marion.
Marion's Cale Cannoy took the mound for the first time in a year in the top of the first inning. He had an arm injury that limited him to 15 2/3 innings pitched last season. He mowed down Mount Vernon’s lineup.
Then came Marion’s first inning turn at the plate. The Indians scored 14 runs and every player had at least one RBI.
“That hitting just got contagious,” said Coach Steve Fish. “Coupled with the way we hit and having Cale out there, it is refreshing.”
Marion finished with 19 hits. Cannoy gave up two to Mount Vernon.
“It gives us confidence and more options for these upcoming games,” said Fish.
Marion plays Washington in the fifth-place game Wednesday at approximately 7 p.m. at Marion.
Mount Vernon plays Jefferson in the seventh-place game at 5 p.m.
