Wilson, Rangers blank Mullen

by Wyoming Sports.org

SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. -- Coleton Wilson was spectacular once again.

The Laramie Rangers AA pitching ace blanked Denver Mullen on just three hits on Friday as the Rangers opened the Scottsbluff, Neb., tournament with a 2-0 victory.

Wilson, now 8-4 on the season, gave up a single to Joey Ross to begin the game, but would yield just two other singles in the seven-inning contest, as Mullen had just three base runners advance to second base in the contest. Wilson walked two and struck out three.

The Rangers offense, meanwhile, had just seven hits and two runs, but that was enough. Laramie scored on a two-run single by Jon Sorenson in the bottom of the third inning.

Sorenson and Sean Gardea paced with the Rangers with a pair of hits each.

On Saturday, the Rangers (17-20) routed host WESTCO 11-1 and edged Chadron, Neb., 1-0. No other results were available. The Rangers closed the tournament on Sunday against Ogallala, Neb., and Chappell, Neb.
