The game was a close, well played game. “ Jason Halvorsen was superb on the mound and our defense was tough. We just couldn’t get any runs across the plate,” lamented Ployhar. Halvorsen crossed up the Central Oregon all stars with a variety of off- speed pitches, including a knuckleball. Rod Zumwalt led the batters with a double and J.D Shannon turned in the defensive gem of the tournament when he outsprinted a runner to first base after making a diving stop of a grounder.
