GEORGETOWN, Del.- Behind two runs in the bottom of the sixth inning, the Sussex Tech Ravens defeated the Milford Bucs 4-3 to move to 11-1 on the year. The loss drops the Buccaneers to 9-3.
Coming off their first loss of the season on Saturday to St. Georges, Sussex Tech welcomed in Milford (9-2). The Bucs came into the afternoon quietly having a great season, sitting sixth in the state standings.
Milford came out hot. Two quick hits in the top of the first inning including an RBI double by Aydin Zimmerman to bring Matt Winkleblech home from second. In the bottom of the inning, pitcher Alex Mergner struck out two of three batters to keep the score 1-0 to end the first.
Bryce Wells was happy to be back on the field after missing more than three weeks of action.
The Milford High senior midfielder scored a hat trick in his first bit of action since suffering a shoulder injury March 29 as his Bucs defeated Sussex Central High 22-1 at Briggs Stadium Wednesday night.
“It feels pretty good being back out here with my brothers,” said Wells. “I missed them, it was a long three weeks, I can tell you that, but being back out here and playing with them was exciting … It’s definitely a big confidence-booster we needed it. We lost a few games by one or two goals, but it feels good to get a win against a conference team.”
