The James Logan Courier

Courier Staff Report

James Logan’s scrappy, but young, varsity baseball team bowed out of the NCS championship tournament Saturday, ousted by Clayton Valley of Concord on a late-inning hit.

Logan battled to a tie in the game, 4-4, in the top of the final inning, but fell in the bottom of the inning, the seventh, when a walk turned into a run batted in for the Eagles.

The Colts varsity baseball team buried first round NCS playoff opponent San Leandro Wednesday to earn the right to play tomorrow against Clayton Valley in the Section 3-A quarterfinals.

The Pirates hopes of similarly advancing were snuffed out by a stellar performance by Colt Pitcher Josh Trejo who struck out eight batters while walking only three. For the first three innings, Trejo mowed down Clayton Valley hitters in order, facing only nine, in the first three innings.

The Pirates rallied for single runs in the fourth and the seventh innings, but Trejo got the complete game victory, 9-2, for the Colts.

Hundreds of athletes from around Northern California and elsewhere came to James Logan last weekend to participate in the Sikh Sports Mega Event.

This event was hosted by the Sikh Sports Association, a non-profit organization established in 2006 and managed by a board of directors, one of them being Harpaul Singh Rana who teaches the Punjabi language at Logan. Dozens of sponsors, mostly local individuals, families and businesses, but also others from around the U.S. and India, helped fund the games.
