Fighting Knights Lose, 8-6, in 10
Niskayuna catcher Xavier Brandon had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 8-6, to Santa Barbara in 10 innings. Brandon was 4-4 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk. He drove in 2 runs. Santa Barbara reliever Josue Muro was credited with the win. His record goes to 2-1. Danny Manzano took the loss for Niskayuna. Santa Barbara, at 35-12, is cruising.

The Super Troopers beat the Fighting Knights in part due to timely hitting. Case in point: the two-out single Jordan McPherson produced in the top of the tenth. Batting against Danny Manzano, McPherson gave his team the lead, 7-6, when he hit a run-scoring single.

McPherson told a Santa Barbara News reporter that he felt "ecstatic" after the win.
