Getting your player ready...
Last Saturday, the Fort Collins nine proved that defending Class 5A baseball champion Rocky Mountain could be had. The Lambkins gave the Lobos their first in-state loss in 2008 behind the pitching of Ryan Beck, who struck out nine and gave up just three runs (two earned) and four hits to a batting order that’s arguably the best in Colorado. The outcome of the northern-area rivalry in the Front Range League, strong across the sports board, also may shuffle the district pairings, due out in six days.
