Sharks 16, St. Bernard 11

The Sharks survived a slugfest against the St. Bernard Vikings yesterday, 16-11. With four runs in the first inning, six in the second, one in the third, and five more in the fourth, Malibu was able to hold off a late run by St. Bernard in a game called after five-and-a-half innings due to darkness.

Mike Gwyn hit the Sharks' first homerun of the season, a three-run shot to left center in the top of the fourth. Stephen Williams was 4-for-4 with four RBIs and Brooks Fitch continued his offensive onslaught with a single and a double. Bennett Sherman doubled twice and Greg Kernodle had three hits and two stolen bases.

Wesley Semkin pitched four innings for the Sharks to earn his first win of the season.

Next up for Malibu is a home game against St. Monica's tomorrow at 11:00 a.m.
