Prep baseball: Lancers best Sailors

NEWPORT BEACH - Adam Cherry singled in a run to account for one of

few highlights for the Newport Harbor High baseball team, which dropped a

10-1 verdict to visiting Orange Lutheran in the fifth-place semifinals of

the Newport Elks Tournament’s Costa Mesa Division Tuesday.

Cherry’s single was one of three straight hits for the Sailors, who

cut their deficit to 2-1 with the rally. Shane Glenn and Ryan Heenan had

the other Harbor hits.

But the Lancers (2-1), yielded no more hits to send the Tars (1-2) to

a home consolation game Saturday at 2 p.m. against the loser of Tuesday’s

Garden Grove-Brentwood clash.
