Sophomore Kaden Starr and junior Conner Chase combined for a five-inning no-hitter Tuesday to lead the Marist Spartans to a 13-1 victory over the Siuslaw Vikings in Sky-Em League baseball at Jiggs Dodson Field.

The Vikings close their season Friday with a twin bill at Junction City. First pitch is 3 p.m.

"The men had a positive attitude and kept fighting to the end," Siuslaw coach Tom Shinn said. "Marist is a very good baseball team. Their pitcher (Starr) did a great job attacking the zone."

Starr struck out five but also walked five over 3 2-3 innings, allowing the Vikings to score in the fourth inning.

"In the fourth inning, the guys that came to the plate showed a lot of plate discipline, worked several walks and pushed a run across," Shinn said.

The Spartans, 12-1, all in league, have outscored opponents 167-54 this season. The win Tuesday clinched the league title, giving Marist a three-game lead with two to play.

Prior to Tuesday's game, the Vikings honored seniors Elijah Blankenship, Chayton James, Clay Kramer, Dalton Stinger and Logan Teel.
