Pico's bases-clearing double leads Cal Lutheran to 4-2 win over Bulldogs

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- California Lutheran's Nick Pico hit a three-run double in the sixth inning as part of a four-run, sixth-inning rally that propelled the Kingsmen to a 4-2 win Friday afternoon over No. 5 Texas Lutheran.

TLU led 2-0 heading into the bottom of the sixth.

Senior left-hander Justin Fong (2-0) tossed seven innings and struck out nine to pick up the win for CLU.

Thomas Varner (Austin/Bowie) and Cullen Motsinger (Houston/Cypress Ranch) had RBI for the Bulldogs. Both runs came in the TLU third inning.

Varner singled to score Collin Docker (Lago Vista/Lago Vista), and Motsinger singled to score Austin Colon (La Grange/La Grange).

The Bulldogs will attempt to play a third game on their California trip, but the weather on Saturday in Orange, Calif. does not look promising.
