            The Chargers got on the board early, putting two over home plate within the first three plays when the Chargers' Drew Wier and Tim DeSautel scored. The Chargers went on to score two more times that first inning and did not let up over the 4-inning game.

            Pitcher Caiden Maack opened the game for the Blue Dragons, playing two innings. He struck out two but allowed five hits and three walks. He was followed by Treyton Decker, who struck out one but walked four and committed four errors. Cole Jessen finished out the game's final innings, striking out two. He allowed two hits and two walks.

            The Dragons head to Baltic this Friday, April 26 and take on the Bulldogs at 5:30 p.m. They are back on home turf as they host Tri-Valley on Sunday, April 28 at 2:00 p.m.
