y Knights began Skyline Central Conference play with a doubleheader sweep of the North Dickinson Nordics Wednesday at Mike Maule Field.

Behind the one-hit pitching of Cole Baij, the Knights took the opener 11-0 in four innings. The senior went the distance, fanning eight while walking one.

Baij also contributed at the plate with a double, a single and two RBIs.

Norway (9-1 overall, 2-0 in the SCC) jumped on the Nordics for six runs in the first inning and five more in the second.

Landon Ross knocked in three runs and recorded a double. Landon Amundson added two hits, including a double, and two runs driven in and Bryce Adams had two singles and two RBIs.

Owen Baij added two hits and an RBI and AJ Gallino had a single and a run driven in.

In the second game, the Knights scored three in the first inning, one in the second and three more in the third.

Cameron Varda sparked the Norway offense with a double and two RBIs, while Adams, Ross and Elliott Kraemer all drove in a run.

Owen Baij started the game and pitched the first inning. Varda came on in the second and threw three innings of relief without allowing a hit while walking four and striking out six.

Gallino entered the game in the fifth and allowed one run with a strikeout and Adams finished the game off with one inning of shutout ball with two strikeouts.

Trenton Kramer drove in North Dickinson’s run with a double.

“Always good to start out conference play with two wins,” Norway coach Tony Adams said. “We executed very well in game one. We dealt with some adversity in game two and our kids handled it well.

“Our plan for the mound in game two needed to be altered after the first inning and the next three pitchers were all effective, which is a great sign as we progress through our schedule.”
