Mavericks post series-clinching win over Bulls
LETHBRIDGE – High-pressure situations don’t seem to faze this year’s Medicine Hat Mavericks team.
Down to a do-or-die Game 5 against the Lethbridge Bulls on Saturday, the Mavericks rolled to a 4-1 victory on the heels of a one-hit performance from starter Jared Libke.
Mavericks head coach Michael Thompson was quick to praise the game that Libke threw on Saturday.
“That’s one of the best performances I’ve seen all year from any of our pitchers,” said Thompson. “On short days rest, just the guts that he had to go out there and pitch the way that he did. Just a fantastic performance from Jared Libke.”
