CARDINALS KEEP IT ONE SIDED
CANFIELD OH- Canfield didn’t mess around Friday—they pounced early and never let up, steamrolling Columbiana 14-0 in a one-sided showdown.
The Cardinals came out firing in the first inning. Dylan Mancini slapped an RBI single, Zain Jadallah launched a two-run shot to left, and Ryan Weibling followed with another run-scoring knock. Just like that, it was 4-0.
They kept the pressure on in the second, capitalizing on a pair of Clippers errors before Weibling struck again with a two-RBI single. A wild pitch brought in another in the third, and by the time the fourth rolled around, Canfield was in full control. They piled up five more runs behind RBI hits from Jackson Johnson and Joey Gabriel, plus a couple productive outs and free passes with the bases loaded.
On the hill, Noah Anzevino was sharp in his two-inning start—no hits, no runs, and no problem. Theo Richards and Sean Harrington came in out of the pen and shut it down the rest of the way.
Canfield’s offense was balanced and relentless. Jadallah led the team with three RBIs, while Weibling and Gabriel each picked up two hits. The Cards swiped seven bags and drew nine walks, keeping Columbiana’s defense on their heels all day. And defensively? Clean sheet—no errors and solid glove work across the board, with Gage Watson handling six chances himself.
Columbiana’s lone hit came from Rocco Mediate, but the Clippers never found a rhythm. Next up, Canfield hits the road to take on GlenOak Saturday, looking to keep the bats hot.
