The Vikings then hosted the Wellington Jaguars on Wednesday, April 14. It was a done deal from the start as Academy run-ruled them in five innings to take the 26-0 win.

To round out the week, Academy played Bishop Watterson at home on Thursday, April 15. The game went back and forth, with Academy taking the lead in the 6th and then a tie in the 7th, forcing extra innings–but coming up short in 8th–losing by 11-9.

Still, that leaves the Vikings with strong momentum heading in to this week, when  they face Madison Christian at home on Monday, April 19, before traveling to Johnstown-Monroe on Wednesday, April 21, and Whitehall on Friday, April. Their record remains positive at 4-3.
