Council Bluffs, IA – The Indian Hills Baseball team dropped a pair of road contests to No. 8 Iowa Western Community College on Wednesday night, falling 3-2 and 10-0 at Doc Ross Field. The Warriors fall to 21-9 overall and 11-4 in Iowa Community College Athletic Conference (ICCAC) play.

In a battle of the top two teams in the ICCAC, the Warriors and Reivers squared off for a conference doubleheader in Council Bluffs. Jurgen Zwitzer (Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, Netherlands/Thorbecke Voortgezet Onderwijs) got the start on the mound for the Warriors and retired six of the first seven batters of the game before the Reivers got on the board with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third.

The Warrior offense answered back immediately with two runs of their own in the top of the fourth. Daniel Figueroa (Toa Alta, Puerto Rico/Leadership Christian Academy) manufactured the team's first run with a single and stolen base before scoring on a ground out. James Dutton (Toronto, ON/Forest Hill Collegiate Institute) delivered the second run of the inning with an RBI single to score Tucker Ebest (Austin, TX/Lasa).

Zwitzer sat the Reivers down in order in the fourth, but the home team struck once more in the fifth after a pair of singles and a walk led to a 3-2 Iowa Western lead. The Warriors managed just two baserunners over the final three innings to fall in the opener.

The Warrior bats fell silent in the nightcap as Indian Hills collected just three singles off the pitching staff that boasts the fifth-best earned run average in the nation. The Reivers jumped on the board with a pair of runs in the second before plating four in the fourth and a pair in both the fifth and sixth innings to walk away with the evening sweep.

The Warriors are back in action this weekend at Pat Daugherty Field in Centerville for a three-game ICCAC series with Kirkwood Community College. The two teams will square off for a doubleheader at 1:00 PM on Friday followed by a single nine-inning contest at 1:00 PM on Saturday. The weekend series will be a part of Parent's Weekend and the celebration of the sophomore class.
