MONTPELIER – Danville’s Sebastian Eldred and his Lyndon Institute baseball team closed out the regular season with their fourth straight win last week, improving to 11-2.
Jackson Dwyer fired a complete game shutout to power the Vikings to a 4-0 road win over U-32 last Thursday. Dwyer scattered four hits and didn’t issue a walk all day. Caiden Bickford belted an RBI double, and Logan Wheeler added a pair of hits in the win. Eldred has been a staple in the middle of the Vikings’ lineup during his senior campaign, keeping Lyndon near the top of the Division II standings all season. Their only two losses have come to an undefeated Division III Thetford Academy team and a fourth-seeded Hartford team that is on the other side of the Division II state tournament bracket.
Lyndon earned the No. 2 seed and will get a bye into the quarterfinal round. They will square off against the winner of No. 7 Spaulding/No. 10 Lamoille on Saturday.
