Katzakian races to first Stars win

Lodi's Colin Katzakian raced to victory in a Snap-On Stars of Karting Western Division event last weekend at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, Utah.

Racing in the Spec Racer series, Katzakian, who started on the pole, took the lead on the eighth lap when two drivers in front of him bumped, allowing him to move to the front of the pack.

Katzakian, who recently returned to the track after a two-year absence, never relinquished the lead, earning his first-ever Stars win and a trip to the victory podium.

Katzakian will race in Palm Springs later this month.

Baseball
Cal Ripken All-Stars

The Lodi 12-year-old All-Stars went 1-2 at the Cal Ripken State Tournament in San Luis Obispo.

In Lodi's lone win, it overcame a 2-0 deficit in the fifth inning to beat Selma 3-2.

The win was sparked by hits from Taylor Morgan, Sean Tully and Grant Hennecke. Will Lydon was the winning pitcher, striking out the final hitter in the sixth to preserve the victory.

In a loss to San Luis Obispo, Tully hit a home run over the 14-foot high, 285-foot fence.

"Lodi was represented proudly by a group of 12 year olds who represented their town with tough competitive spirit and class," Lodi head coach Rick Morgan said.

Rounding out the team are Matt Stanley, Ben Brumm, Jacob Saco, Jack Swimley, Josh Quesada, Cheo Tessaro, Ryan Swearengen, Tyler White, Conner Daley and Eddie Romero.

American Legion
St. Mary's 15, Lodi 5

Matt Clark had a two-run single for Lodi (6-12) at Zupo Field.

Tyler Wahlen and Diego Chavira had two hits apiece and Geeze Borges added a single.

Pat Armstrong pitched the first five innings for Lodi and Chavira came on in relief to finish the game.

"It was a close game early, until the seventh," Lodi coach Mark Armstrong said. "But they ended up 10-running us."

Lodi defeated Southside Legion of Sacramento 9-8 on Monday night. Bryce Williams went 3-for-4 and also earned the victory.

Armstrong and Danny Borges each had two hits for Lodi (6-10). Armstrong also earned the save, striking out the side in the seventh inning.
