The baseball team received a much needed slice of humble pie in their 15 to nothing, no-hit loss to Sangamo Conference Champ Williamsville in a 4 inning contest at their place. The only Solon highlight of the night was that many lessons are left to be taught and learned to right the ship of a very fun and successful season so far, as the Senators are still in 2nd in the CS8 standings with a 12 and 2 conference mark to go with 18 wins against 5 losses for the season. Next up on the journey is a 10 am contest Saturday at Dunlap.
