The Vikes’ outstanding defense limited the high-powered Blazers offense to just three runs by committing only one error and making quick, accurate plays in the field.

“It feels great to be winning against solid competition,” Steinberg said. “I feel that we have the depth necessary to keep winning while Patrick is injured.”

The team looks to improve its record to 12-2 when it takes on the Damascus Hornets April 27.
