Royce Lichtenberg and Brodie Schultz, who recently graduated from Berlin High School, had the chance to represent the Indians one more time as they played in a Fox Valley Senior All-Star Game at Fox Cities Stadium, which is the home of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers in Appleton, on Sunday afternoon!

The duo for Berlin helped the Cardinal Team earn a 7-5 victory in an exciting thriller that went into extra innings.

On offense, Schultz went 1-for-2 with a single and was struck by a pitch, while Lichtenberg added a hit over three at-bats. They helped guide their squad to an early 3-0 advantage before the Silver Team climbed back to even the score and force nine innings.

Be sure to grab a copy of this week’s edition (July 30) of the Berlin Journal to read the full recap with comments from the two players and see more photos!
