TOPEKA — Bremen baseball coach Bo Hundt would rather get a big inning in the first. But hey, he’ll take the seventh if he has to.
The No. 10 Lions got six shutout innings from starter Jacob Bennitt, and they broke open a 3-0 game with five runs as Fremont rotated through a trio of pitchers in the top of the seventh in an 8-0 Class 2A Westview Sectional semifinal win over the Eagles in the nightcap in Topeka Thursday. Bremen now advances to face the host Warriors in the championship game Monday, slated for noon.
