High school roundup: Notre Dame baseball team sweeps own showcase tournament

The Notre Dame baseball team finished a perfect weekend during its showcase event with Saturday night's 5-0 win over Oran.

Notre Dame blanked MICDS 5-0 earlier in the day and rallied for a wild 6-5, nine-inning victory over Jefferson City Helias in a Friday game that didn't end until nearly midnight.

"We played well and it was a great two days of baseball," said Notre Dame coach Jeff Graviett, whose squad is 12-1. "We're hoping to put together something like this again next year."

Ace pitcher Cody Heisserer fired a two-hit shutout at Oran (11-4) in the event's final contest. He struck out nine and walked four.

Justin Landewee had two of Notre Dame's eight hits. The Bulldogs scored all their runs in the first three innings.

Sophomore Ross James was masterful against MICDS by pitching a four-hit shutout. He struck out nine and did not issue a walk.

Griffin Siebert and Jesse Schott both had two of the Bulldogs' eight hits. They scored all their runs in the fifth inning.

Notre Dame needed late magic to slip past Helias on Friday night.

The teams ended the regulation seven innings tied 3-3, but Helias pushed across two runs in the top of the ninth.

Notre Dame's first two batters were retired in the bottom of the ninth when the Bulldogs came to life.

Josh Haggerty walked, Kyle Campbell got an infield single, Landewee delivered an RBI single and Jonathan Lynch did the same when his windblown pop fly fell.

Landewee then stole home to end the contest.

Notre Dame again had eight hits, led by Landewee, Campbell and Chase Simmons with two apiece. Landewee was the winning pitcher.

Oran, which beat MICDS 9-2 on Friday, lost to Helias 11-10 in nine innings Saturday. The Eagles led 6-0 and 8-2 before the Crusaders rallied.

Kody Moore had three hits and four RBIs for Oran. He doubled and tripled. Dalton Elfrink and Seth Ressel both added two of the Eagles' 10 hits.
