A win is a win, so Genoa wont worry about the lack of style points from Fridays 9-5 nonleague high school baseball victory at Cardinal Stritch.

The Comets shook off a rough start to stay perfect at 5-0, using a key six-run rally in the top of the sixth inning after falling behind 4-0 early.

Kyle Edwards was the difference, coming in to relieve starting pitcher Matt Aumiller, who had a shaky outing before exiting after two innings.

Edwards worked the final five innings, allowing just one run on five hits to earn the victory.

My role is to basically come in and be the inning two or three guy whenever we need it, and thats what I kind of fell into today, Edwards said. Matt [Aumiller] kind of struggled a little bit. Hes a great pitcher, but he just didnt have it today.

I came in and just threw strikes. Im not going to overpower anyone. I just try to throw strikes, mix it up a little bit, and let the defense make plays.

Getting the win is all that matters. This is a stepping stone for the rest of the season.
