Albion rode the sparkling no hit pitching of Nate Gibson to score a 9-0 Niagara-Orleans League baseball victory over Akron this afternoon.

Gibson, who struck out 16, also provided the only runs the Purple Eagles would need as it turned out by belting a two-run homer in the first inning.

Elliott Trapiss added a two-run single to key a three run second inning and Kaiden Froman had an RBI single during a four run sixth.

Albion improves to 7-3 in N-O action as Akron slips to 6-5.
