KFTM Sports Update

Wiggins baseball was on the road yesterday and fell to Akron 14-5. Wiggins took the lead in the top

of the 3rd inning 3-2 but Akron responded with 4 runs in the 3rd, 4th and 6th and the Tigers

managed just 2 more the rest of the game. Wiggins is now 4-6. They will get a chance to bounce

back today as they play SedgCo in a doubleheader at home. That will start at 11am.

Brush baseball took on Eaton yesterday and fell 6-2. Much like the Wiggins game, Brush took the

lead 2-1 in the 3rd but Eaton immediately responded with a run in the bottom of the 3rd to tie it and

then proceeded to score runs in the next 3 innings to pull away. Brush is now 6-4 on the season.

They will face Sterling tomorrow at 11am at home.

Fort Morgan baseball will play today on the road against Sterling at 4pm. You can listen to that game

More reports have also come out about the recent firing of former Denver Nuggets coach Michael

improved to 3-9. They start a weekend series in San Diego against the Padres tonight at 7:40pm.
