Jake Edmondson's first-inning two-run home run was one of our Monticello hits and was enough run support as the Sages finished the regular season with a 2-0 win over Pontiac in Illini Prairie Conference boy's baseball action Tuesday from Pontiac.
Luke Teschke, Cole Smith, and Tristan Foran combined to shut out the Indians and allowed just one hit.
Teschke struck out three and Smith struck out one as each threw three innings. Foran closed the door on the ballgame with a scoreless 7th inning.
Joey Sprinkle doubled, Logan Chupp and Jacob Trusner recorded hits for the Sages and Andrew Rudolph walked twice.
The Sages finished the regular season on a nine-game winning streak and won 11 of their final 13 games finishing 13-5 overall.
Monticello will now head to the postseason where they begin play at Tolono Unity Friday afternoon in Regional semifinal action. Hear Friday's action on 95.9 FM WEZC and online at dewittdailynews.com. First pitch is 4:30 pm.
