RHS sports recap: Friday, April 21


Baseball: Marathon 6, Rhinelander 2

Marathon scored four times in the fifth inning to break a 2-all tie and defeated the RHS baseball team 6-2 in a non-conference matchup on the road Friday.

The Hodags jumped out to an early 2-0 lead thanks to an RBI single by James Heck and a run scored by Owen Kurtz when Cody Everson reached on a two-out error in the first. Marathon tied it in the third inning and took the lead in the fifth thanks to a bases loaded hit-by-pitch followed by an RBI walk, a fielder's choice for a run and a double steal of second and home.

Kurtz collected three hits on the day while Heck was 2-for-4 with an RBI. The Hodags outhit Marathon 8-4 but left runners in scoring position in five innings. Kaden Vanney took the loss in relief, giving up four runs, but only one earned, over 2 1/3 innings.

Rhinelander (2-5, 2-2 Great Northern) travels to Medford for a doubleheader on Tuesday.
