Despite an early 4-run rally from Yuba in the top of the first, Lassen quickly responded with a run in the bottom of the first and never looked back. A series of multi-run innings, including three runs in the fifth and two in the sixth, propelled the Cougars to a commanding lead, ultimately securing the win.
Lassen’s offense was on fire, producing 12 hits, including two triples, a double, and a home run. Jack Zimmerman and Jackson Rosenthal led the charge, combining for four hits and four RBIs.
