ENID, Oklahoma -- Kerik Brown had three hits including two doubles and a home run leading NOC Tonkawa past NOC Enid 7-6 in Game 2 of a doubleheader on Monday in Enid.

POTEAU, Oklahoma -- Matthew Stancliff had seven hits in Friday’s doubleheader leading the Mavs past Carl Albert 12-8 and 18-12 in Poteau.

In the doubleheader, the sophomore second baseman had seven hits, nine rbi’s, five runs scored, a home run, triple, and stolen base.

The Mavs (35-16) are now 16-10 in league play while Carl Albert (27-21) fell to 12-14. The Mavs are one game behind NOC Enid for second place in the conference.

In Game 1, the Mavs built an early 10-4 lead and held on for a 12-8 win.

They were solved at last, an impossible puzzle that had somehow eluded the Lakers’ best mental and physical efforts for more than a year, for nine in a row of these increasingly familiar meetings.

NOC Tonkawa split a doubleheader Friday against Western and won the key series between the two teams.
