HILLSBORO - Jefferson College sophomore Ryan Mantle had three extra-base hits last Tuesday in the Vikings' doubleheader sweep of Three Rivers Community College.
Mantle (Linn High School) was 2-for-5 with one single, one double and two runs scored in game one, a 14-6 win. In game two, he scored three runs and drove in two runs, adding a double and a home run in the Vikings' 16-1 win in five innings.
Mantle's home run was his team-high eighth of the season and he also leads the team with 46 runs scored to go along with 36 RBI and a .373 batting average (53-for-142) in 43 games.
