Sutter Tosses No-Hitter in Genoa Win

Genoa- After a tough stretch of losses, Genoa would finally get back into the win column against Fostoria thanks to a pitching gem by senior Sam Sutter.

Sutter threw a no-hitter Monday and Genoa overcame the Redmen by a score of 5-0.

Sutter started on the mound for the Comets giving up no hits in the first two innings and pitching well with runners in scoring position due to two errors.

The Comets didn't have much luck on the offensive side however as they managed only two hits and no runs scored two the first two innings.

The Comets would strike first in the third inning scoring one run on two hits and a hit batter.

Sutter would continue to dominate the Fostoria batters as he would go the next three innings without giving up a hit making it five hit-less innings for him.

The Comets continued to struggle offensively until the sixth inning where they would drive across four runs on five hits to take a comfortable lead.

The score would not change, nor would the goose egg in the hit column for the Redmen, as Sutter would complete his no-hitter  on 91 pitches.

Leading the Comets offensively were freshman Sam Witt (2-for-3, 2 RBIs) and Gabe Scott (2-for-2, 2 Runs).

The Comets improve to 2-5 on the season and will travel to Otsego on Wednesday

The Redmen fall to 3-4 on the season.
