Less than 24 hours after picking up their first victory of the season, the Pioneers were on the road again with a double-header against a strong Selah team. In game one, the Pioneers scored in the first inning on a line-drive single to right field by Cole Bauman which scored Jesse Tresselt, but that would be all the offense that Nooksack Valley could muster. Kasey Newton was 2-for-2 in the game, and also walked once. Sophomore starter Evan Brown struck out three batters in four innings on the mound.
