Friday Flashback: Unable to summon the beast inside, SJO suffers home loss on to Trojans

ST. JOSEPH - Jared Altenbaumer unloads a pitch, getting another taste of varsity action during St. Joseph-Ogden's home baseball against Maroa-Forsyth in April of 2023. The sophomore went to the mound replacing senior Jack Robertson in the 8-4 loss to the visiting Trojans. The Spartans went on to finish the season 28-8 and second in the Illini Prairie Conference with a 8-1 record. In his 66 trip to the plate last season, Altenbaumer struck out just eight times and finished the season with a .347 ERA. Six games into the current season he has produced ten hits and 11 RBI on his 18 at bats.
