It was an impressive outing for the fall 2024 Warriors baseball team.

Easton Roby’s RBI gave the Warriors the lead 2-1 in the third inning, but Wright City tied the game in the bottom of the fifth.

Brett Carnott earned the win on the mound.

Ryder Lykins had two hits.

The Warriors opened their fall campaign with a 7-3 home victory Monday, Aug. 12 and then beat Calumet 2-0 on Friday, Aug. 16.
