SOUTH BELOIT, Ill. - Some might call Albany's 2-1 loss at South Beloit, Ill., a near-miss stalemate.
Comets first-year coach Brian Dahl is calling it a promising defensive masterpiece.
"I was happy with the fact that we didn't have any mental errors and the lack of hitting is because we haven't been outside or seen live pitching," Dahl said.
The Sobos finally scraped across the game-winning run in the bottom half of the sixth inning due to walks and a passed ball that let the decisive tally across.
Seniors Brock Peters, Jordan Dean and Drew Peach combined on the pitching duties for Albany, which had just two hits.

Tucker Johnson picked up the victory for the Blue Devils and fanned four hitters in as many innings worked.
