A trio of pitchers combined to hurl a no hitter as Kendall blanked Barker 7-0 in a non league season opening baseball game at Lyndonville this afternoon.

Nic Cole, Jimmie Swift and Gavin Braun shared in achieving the no hitter registering a total of 14 strikeouts. Cole had 7 strikeouts over the first four innings while Swift had 5 over two innings and Braun 2 in the final frame.

James Fox had a pair of hits and Colby Hughes a two-run double to lead Kendall at the plate.

Kendall moved on top to stay by scoring two quick runs in the first inning on hits by Fox, Louie Conte and Vinny D’Agostino.

The Eagles will next have three scrimmages and two games at the Ripken Experience complex in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina over the Easter week break.
