Cougars Jolt Shockers with Late Rally
The Valley View Cougars beat the Surprise Shockers, 5-4, at Hillandale Grounds. The Cougars got a fine performance from first baseman Ken Norris, who captured player of the game honors. He went 2-4 with a home run and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The win was Ales Kretky's in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Trent Crowder took the loss for Surprise. The Shockers fall to 6-10 and continue their wobbly start to the 2036 season.

John Ingham was the walk-off hero for Valley View. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Cougars designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Norris. "And not try to do too much."
