“It’s obviously tough to round anybody 3 times in a year, especially with (hurler) Spencer (Cumiford) trying to beat them three time,” Wilsonville coach Matt Kosderka said. “They executed all the chances they had, and we didn’t. That’s what it came down to.”
Cumiford allowed four hits, five runs and 9 walk and hit out 4 in 5 innings pitched.
