CPHS Baseball: Sandites end season with 22-11 record, six headed to college programs

The Charles Page High School baseball team finished their season Thursday afternoon in Owasso as the host Rams (34-5) won their eleventh shutout of the season and fifth-straight Regional Championship.

Owasso went 3-0 in the playoff, outscoring their opponents 19-0 for their 33rd Regional title. They scored runs in each of the first four innings and held on for a 7-0 victory. Sand Springs was held to a season-low two hits, and committed a season-high seven errors.

Jaxon Skaggs (3-2) got the start and the loss on the mound, throwing seven hits, three strikeouts, and three walks in four innings. Sebastian Cassity (4-3) threw one strikeout, no walks, and no hits in one inning of relief. Kiefer Massey (1-0) finished the game with one strikeout, no walks, and no hits in two innings.

The Sandites ended the season with an identical win-percentage to last year, going 22-11 overall, and improved from 7-5 to 8-4 in district action. Second-year Head Coach James Garrison is now 46-23 at Sand Springs and 60-42 in his career.

Offensively they averaged 5.88 runs per game, a slight dip from last season, but only allowed 3.39 runs per game, their lowest since 2012. Their 2.49 average margin of victory is also their best since 2012.

The 8-4 district record and 8-2 home record were the team’s best since 2015. They notched six shutout wins for the third-straight year, and suffered only two shutouts for the second straight year. Their longest win streak was six-straight, and they never lost more than two games in a row. Every team the Sandites lost to ended the season with a winning record.

Seminole State College-signee Cal Watkins led the Sandite offense in most statistical categories, including: batting average (.400), slugging average (.514), runs (27), hits (42), singles (30), doubles (11), RBI (29), and stolen bases (26). He also went 1-1 on the mound and recorded two saves.

Jacob Snodgrass led the team with two triples, and was one of only two players to hit a home run. Cale Savage hit a team-high two homers and was in on 23 double plays. Ethan Sartin had the best on-base percentage on the team at .469.

The Sandite bullpen was thirteen-deep this year, but only seven players logged ten innings or more. Ben Banker was the workhorse, throwing nearly fifty innings for a 6-2 record, 1.87 ERA, 1.56 WHIP, and a team-high 39 strikeouts.

John Miller (2-1) was right behind Banker with 32 strikeouts in only 26 innings. He also recorded two saves on the season. Massey had the team-best ERA at 0.70 and WHIP at 1.30, but only threw ten innings this year. Seth Villines (4-0) had the best overall record, and the best ERA (1.69) and WHIP (1.31) among pitchers who threw more than ten innings.

Six Sandites have signed letters of intent to continue their careers at the collegiate level. Tyler Ash, John Miller, and Banker are headed to Eastern Oklahoma State College. Kyler Copeland will play for College of the Ozarks, and Cale Savage will play at Northern Oklahoma College at Enid.

CPHS Baseball: Sandites beat Union 4-2 in extra innings at Regional Tournament

The Charles Page High School varsity baseball team (22-10) defeated Union 4-2 in a ten-inning Regional playoff game Wednesday afternoon in Owasso, but suffered their first shutout of the season at the hands of the host team. The Rams (33-5) beat the Sandites 5-0, but Sand Springs can still advance to the State Tournament if they can upset Owasso twice on Thursday.

The defending State Champions from Union (11-23) were eliminated after falling 7-0 to the Rams, who improved to ten shutouts on the season with their fourteenth-straight win.

Owasso can clench their fifth straight Regional title and 33rd overall with a win on Thursday. They are ranked 42nd in the nation by PerfectGame and won their 13th State Championship in 2015.

The Sandites will have to beat Owasso in back-to-back games Thursday if they want to make it to the State Tournament for the first time since 2011. The uphill battle will kick off at 3:00 p.m. If they win the first game, they’ll play again at 5:00.

CPHS 4 Union 2

The Sandites led for four innings against Union after taking a 2-0 lead in the top of the second. Northern Oklahoma College-commit Cale Savage hit his second home run of the season to kick off the inning, then Keaton Campbell brought in Malachi Burks on an RBI single.

Seth Villines (4-0, 5-0) got the start on the mound and threw two hits, four strikeouts, and four walks in five innings. After giving up a homer to Trent Desmet in the bottom of the sixth, he was replaced by Cal Watkins (1-1). Watkins threw two hits and a walk, giving up the game-tying RBI double to JD Geneva, and was replaced by John Miller (2-1, 7-2).

Miller hit a single in the seventh but was stranded, then struck out two to send the game into extra innings. Miller ended the game with four strikeouts, no walks, and only one hit, and was relieved by Preston Berg (0-1) late in the eighth. Berg tossed four balls and was replaced by Brycen Peterman (1-1). Peterman finished out the night and earned his first career win with two hits, two strikeouts, and one walk.

Sand Springs finally got back out front in the tenth inning, spurred by a lead-off double from Villines. Burks and Kaegan Murray were hit by pitch to load the bases. Villines was walked in and Burks scored on a passed ball for the final score of 4-2.

Owasso 5 CPHS 0

Eastern Oklahoma State College-signee David Sandlin (5-0) threw eleven strikeouts against the Sandites, the most of any pitcher this season. He gave up only four hits and one walk, giving Sand Springs their first shutout in the past 35 games.

Ben Banker (6-2, 7-2) got the start and the loss on the mound, throwing five hits, four strikeouts, and four walks. Jaxon Skaggs (3-1) pitched the final third of the fifth inning, then Michael Miller took over for the remainder of the night. Miller threw two hits, two strikeouts, and two walks in two innings.

Sand Springs stranded two runners in the first and Owasso stranded two in the second. The Rams got on the board with an RBI double from Jack Hammond in the third and Sandlin struck out the side that inning.

Brody Green singled and scored on an error in the fourth. Connor Beichler walked in the fifth, then Cameron Thompson and Nathan Ackenhausen hit back-to-back doubles to make it 3-0. The Sandites stranded two more hits in the fifth. Hammond hit an RBI single and Ackenhausen brought him in on a double in the seventh.

CPHS Baseball: Sandites headed to Owasso Regional, first game Wednesday

The Charles Page High School varsity baseball team will play their first two Regional playoff games Wednesday afternoon in Owasso. They’ll have to win at least one to stay alive in the post-season.

The Sandites finished the regular season 21-9 after going 22-10 in last year’s regular season. They improved over the prior season in several categories. Their 8-4 district record is their best since 2015.

6.3 runs per game is the best Sandite offense since 2016, and their 3.3 runs allowed is their best defense since at least 2012. This is their third-straight season with six shutouts, and their first season since 2012 without a shutout loss. But the season isn’t over yet.

Sand Springs will face Union (11-21) Wednesday at 3:00 p.m. The District 4 Champions from Owasso (30-5) will play the Redskins at 12:00 p.m. Sand Springs and Owasso will meet at 6:00 p.m. The tournament is double-elimination.

Thursday could see anywhere between one and three games depending on how Wednesday shakes out. If all three teams have one loss after Wednesday, then Sand Springs and Union will play again on Thursday, with the winner taking on Owasso. The day will kick off at 3:00 p.m.

Owasso beat Union 10-0 and 8-5 last week in district action. Sand Springs beat Union 5-3 two weeks ago in a non-district game. The Rams and Sandites have yet to play each other.

The Rams are ranked 42nd in the nation by PerfectGame and have won thirteen State titles, most recently in 2015. They own 32 Regional titles and haven’t failed to make the State Tournament since 2014. Union is the defending State Champion with seven State titles.

Sand Springs has advanced to State eight times, most recently in 2011. They have made it to the semifinals three times and played in the Championship only once, falling to Will Rogers in 1978.

CPHS Baseball: Sandites shut out Glenpool 13-0 in regular-season finale

The Charles Page High School varsity baseball team wrapped up the regular season with a 21-9 overall record and 8-4 record in District 6A-3. The boys fell 2-1 and 4-3 to Enid (24-9, 8-4) on Thursday and Friday, but bounced back with a dominant 13-0 shutout of Glenpool (9-23) in their last game before the Regional playoffs.

Sebastian Cassidy (4-3) pitched a three-inning no-hitter with two strikeouts and two walks against Glenpool, while Jaxon Skaggs (3-1) tossed three hits and one strikeout in two innings of relief. The Sandites only needed nine hits to score twelve runs thanks to an eleven-walk performance by the Warriors.

Cal Watkins reached on a fielder’s choice in the first inning, stole second and third, then scored on a single from Cale Savage. The boys scored nine runs in the third. Watkins scored on a fielder’s choice. Kyler Copeland and Seth Villines hit RBI singles to score Cale and Cason Savage, and the home team took a 4-0 lead.

Villines got a free run after three-straight walks, then Kaegan Murray brought in Ryan Seabolt and Jacob Shields on a single. Jacob Snodgrass scored on a passed ball, Murray walked in, then Brycen Peterman scored on a fielder’s choice to make it 10-0.

The Warriors stranded loaded bases in the fourth and the home team put the game away soon after. Hayden Blair and Snodgrass hit back-to-back triples and Snodgrass scored on an error. Murray walked in on loaded bases for the final run of the game. A strikeout from Skaggs and a double play from Peterman to Watkins to Kiefer Massey brought the melee to a close.

Senior Ben Banker (6-1, 7-1) suffered his first career loss on Thursday, throwing six hits, four strikeouts, and three walks in the team’s lowest-scoring game of the season. John Miller (2-1, 7-2) pitched one inning of relief and threw one strikeout.

The Plainsmen scored both of their runs in the top of the second with a homer from Titan Stephens. Keaton Campbell averted the shutout with a steal of home in the fourth.

4/26/19 Enid 4 CPHS 3

On Friday the boys still had a shot at District Runners-Up, but that too was taken from them. Plainsman pitcher Brett Russell threw six hits and four walks, but struck out eight Sandites. Meanwhile Sand Springs went through four pitchers. The visiting Sandites led till the bottom of the fifth, but a three-run inning for Enid snatched victory from the jaws of defeat.

Teagan Cook hit an RBI single in his first varsity at-bat, followed by Villines. Snodgrass and Peterman scored runs for the 2-0 lead. Villines hit another RBI single in the fourth, this time scoring Cason Savage.

Russell scored one for the Plainsmen on a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the second. Enid stranded loaded bases in the fourth, but ran away with it the next inning. After a walk, a balk, and a single gave up a run, Miller was replaced on the mound by Massey (1-0). Massey threw a walk and was replaced by Preston Berg (0-1), who gave up a hit and a hit-by-pitch, and was in-turn replaced by Watkins (1-1).

Watkins threw one hit, one strikeout, and three walks in two innings and was credited with the loss. Miller had eight hits, two strikeouts, and three walks.

CPHS Baseball: Sandites sweep Southmoore, Jaxon Skaggs throws 14 strikeouts

Charles Page High School junior Jaxon Skaggs (3-1) had a breakout performance Monday evening, throwing fourteen strikeouts, two hits, three walks, and no runs in five innings on the mound.

The Sandites (20-7, 8-2) won 5-1 Monday and 2-0 Tuesday against Southmoore High School (4-27, 2-10) to move into the second-place position in district standings.

Northern Oklahoma College-commit Cale Savage went two-for-three at the plate Monday, scoring two runs and four RBI with a double and a home run. The dinger was only the second of the season for Sand Springs, and the second of Savage’s career, and it put the home team up 1-0 in the top of the fourth.

Kiefer Massey hit an RBI single in the sixth to score Savage. The Sabercats also got on the board that inning with an RBI double from Jared Clark to score Parker Powell. Savage cleared a loaded diamond with a 3RBI double in the top of the seventh.

Preston Berg (0-1) pitched two innings of relief, throwing three hits, three strikeouts, and one walk to earn his first save of the season.

Undefeated senior Seth Villines (4-0, 5-0) went the distance Tuesday, tossing two hits, four walks, and four strikeouts in the seven-inning shutout.

Sand Springs scored both of their runs in the fourth inning Tuesday. Brycen Peterman came in on a single from Jacob Snodgrass and Cal Watkins stole home.

The game was the fifth shutout of the season for Sand Springs. The win pushed them to their second-consecutive twenty-win season and best district record since 2015.

Sandite baseball will return to action Thursday at 6:00 p.m. when they host Enid (22-9, 6-4). They will then travel to Enid Friday. The Sandites can clinch the District Title by winning their final two games.

CPHS Baseball: Sandites best Union 5-3, fall 8-4 to Sapulpa

The Charles Page High School varsity baseball team (18-7) split a pair of non-district tune-up games this past weekend, winning 5-3 against Union (10-18), but falling 8-4 to their rivals from Sapulpa (17-15).

On Friday they gave up a 3-0 lead to the Redskins, but shut out their guests in the remaining six innings. Kiefer Massey (1-0) got his first win of the season, throwing one hit, two strikeouts, and one walk in two innings.

Seth Villines (4-0, 5-0) got the start on the mound with three hits and three walks in three innings. All three hits came in the top of the first. Malachi Burks got the home team on the board, scoring on a sacrifice fly from Cal Watkins in the bottom of the first inning.

Jacob Snodgrass and Michael Miller scored on an error in the second to tie it at 3-3. Burks sacrificed to bring in Ryan Seabolt in the fourth and Brycen Peterman hit a double to score John Miller in the final run of the game.

John (2-1, 7-2) and Michael Miller pitched one inning each in relief. Michael Miller threw two strikeouts and a walk, while John Miller threw three strikeouts and was credited with his second save of the season.

On Saturday the Sandites headed south on Highway 97 to take on their biggest rivals. Cale Savage batted in Burks with an RBI single in the top of the first. Back-to-back doubles from Evan Casey and Alan Shibley tied it up in the bottom of the third, but back-to-back doubles from Watkins and Kyler Copeland put the visitors back out front at 3-1 in the fourth.

Ben Banker (6-0, 7-0) got the start on the mound, throwing six hits, three walks, and one strikeout in three innings, but Sebastian Cassidy (3-3) was stuck with the loss. Cassidy threw three hits, one strikeout, and three walks in two innings.

Things began to fall apart in the bottom of the fourth. Alex Wright singled, advanced on a pair of errors, and scored on a passed ball. Cassidy took over with two runners on base and the Chieftains took a 5-3 lead before the inning came to a close.

Villines scored the Sandites’ final run on a sacrifice fly from Savage in the fifth. Sapulpa doubled down in the sixth, loading the bases with two singles and a walk. Watkins (1-0) took over pitching duties, but the Chieftains scored one on a sacrifice and two on an error before a strikeout concluded the inning.
