No. 7 North Central Needed Just One Run in Win Over Vikings

NAPERVILLE, Ill. -- The North Park University baseball team let up just one run to No. 7 North Central College on Wednesday afternoon. Unfortunately, that's all the Cardinals needed, as the Vikings fell in the road game, 1-0.

North Park's offense just could not get going in the mid-week College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin (CCIW) contest, as senior Jared Cantu accounted for half (two) of the Vikings' hits. The other lone hits for North Park were driven by seniors Justin Woolbright and Jake Reinhardt.

Woolbright got the start on the mound for North Park, tossing 4.2 innings while surrendering only three hits and no runs. However, North Central's Luke Lamb and Nicholas Rietz held the Vikings to just four hits while fanning nine en route to the one-run win.

FINAL: North Central 1, North Park 0


Quick Hits:

  • Cantu 2-for-4 on the day
  • Woolbright and Reinhardt accounted for the other two hits
  • Woolbright 4.2 innings of work, no runs, three hits
  • Neither team had an extra-base hit in the game


What's Next?

North Park (6-4, 1-4 CCIW) return home for a doubleheader with Augustana College this Saturday, March 27. First pitch at Holmgren is set for 1 p.m.
