Mustangs open 2010
season with a split
BY DAVID PECK
The Lovell Mustangs
opened the 2010 season
with a pair of solid efforts
in Billings Saturday.
The Lovell nine split a
pair of games, beating the
Billings Halos B team 11-8,
then falling to the Billings
West High School Bears,
10-9.
Coach Ray Peterson
said the Halos' B team was
a very solid team for a ju-
nior varsity squad.
"They're a solid ball-
club," he said. "They gave
us all we could handle in
our first ballgame of the
season.
In game one, the Mus-
tangs led 1-0 in the first
when Andrew Young sin-
gled and scored, then ex-
tended the lead to 5-0 with
four in the top of the third.
Bryce Dickerson started
the rally with a walk, and
Young singled with one out.
Both advanced on a Casey
Pickett single, and Shane
Dickerson singled home
a pair. After Pickett was
forced for the second out,
Scott Everheart singled
and Steven Pickett drew a
walk. Cris Davila drove in
Shane Dickerson and Ever-
heart.
Billings got to Lovell
starter Steven Pickett for
three runs in the bottom
of the third to make it 5-3,
and Lovell responded with
three in the top of the fifth,
only to see the Halos plate
four in the bottom of the
frame to close the gap to
one run, 8-7.
Lovell rallied again
with three runs in the top
of the sixth as Shane Dick-
erson, Davila and Bryce
Dickerson had RBIs, and
Billings could only manage
one run against Lovell clos-
er Andrew Young over the
final two innings.
Pickett picked up the
win on the mound for Lovell
with four innings plus three
batters of work, allowing
six runs on eight hits with
three strikeouts and two
walks. Young threw three
innings, allowing two runs
on two hits with five strike-
outs and pair of walks.
NARROW LOSS
The Mustangs traveled
to the Billings West field
at Eighth and Central for
game two and battled the
Billings West Bears, who
are near the end of their
season and are well drilled,
Peterson said.
"They're fmishing up
their high school season
and have members of the
(American Legion) Scarlets
and Royals on the team,"
Peterson said. "They have
some good players. We've
only been practicing two
weeks but we did pretty
well with our defense and
bats. We hit the ball well."
There were lots of goose
eggs on the scoreboard ear-
ly until the Bears plated
four runs off Lovell starter
Casey Clawson in the third
inning. Lovell matched that
output with four in the top
of the fifth. Shane Dick-
erson drove in three runs
with a double, then scored
on a two-bagger by Ever-
heart.
Billings West scored
four runs in the bottom of
the sixth off reliever Casey
Pickett to lead 8-4, but
LoveU rallied for five in the
seventh, four coming home
on a grand-slam, inside-
the-park homerun by Erik
Brimhall.
Trying to hold on for
the win and leading 9-8, the
Mustangs let it slip through
their fingers as the Bears
plated two runs in the bot-
tom of the seventh to win.
Pickett took the loss for
the Mustangs, allowing sev-
en hits and six runs in two
innings of work. Clawson
allowed four runs in five in-
nings on the mound.
ALUMNI GAME
The annual alumni
game will take place at 1
p.m. Saturday at the Le-
gion ballpark in Cowley.
Peterson said alumni will
be asked to pay $5 to play
as a fund-raiser, with older
players playing in the first
game and younger players
m game two.
