D.C. Everest got stellar pitcher from Cade Felch and two relievers to shut out Marshfield 2-0 in Wisconsin Valley Conference baseball at Simon Field on Tuesday. Felch went the first 5 innings and allowed just 3 hits while walking 5. Caden Allen and Maddux Wyro each tossed a hitless inning as Everest starts a busy week with a win.

It stayed 1-0 until the bottom of the 6th when DCE got a little insurance. After the first two batters were retired, Hayden Grezenski singled. Grezenski then advanced to 2nd base on a wild pitch and stole 3rd base. Grezenski scored on an infield single by Cooper Richie to make it 2-0.
