Vikings strike out 16 in twinbill

Grayling 7 3
Carson City 1 3

Grayling pitchers struck out 16 as the Vikings opened the season with a win over Carson City-Crystal.

Jensen Aubrey fanned nine and scattered two hits in the 7-1 opener and Taylor DesEnfants whiffed seven and also gave up only two hits in a 3-3 nightcap tie.

Grayling led the second contest 3-0 in the bottom of the sixth before their first error helped Carson City rally to knot it up.

In the opener, Ethan Lewis had a triple and double to go along with two RBIs, Luke Schneider drove in a run and Aubrey and Zach Wolcott each had hits.

Aubrey doubled and Schneider added an RBI single in the nightcap.

The Vikings (1-0-1) will take spring break off before resuming play against Roscommon on April 13.
