PCM baseball no-hit in loss

ALLEMAN — North Polk pitcher Cole Jackson threw his second no-hitter of the season in a 7-0 win over Prairie City-Monroe Thursday.

Jackson, who held Saydel hitless on June 9, struck out 12 PCM batters. Only an error prevented him from throwing a perfect game.

The Comets scored three runs in the first and four in the second off PCM pitcher Luke Greiner. North Polk’s Grant Lang hit a two-run home run and Wyatt Johnson and Chris Flynn both had two hits.

Greiner lasted three innings and gave up six hits to North Polk while walking two. He suffered from three errors.

PCM senior Dillon Bruxvoort provided four innings of relief for the Mustangs. He allowed three hits and had four strike outs.
