May 28, 2025 at South Burlington: 12 Innings
The Lakers lose a 2-1 contest in 12 innings at South Burlington, the No. 1 team in the Vermont Principals' Association rankings, on a two-out walk-off single. Nearly 33 years to the day his father tossed 10 innings against Rice, Jackson Pecor logs nine innings of five-hit, one-run ball, fanning nine, with the Wolves tying the game on a two-out sac fly in the seventh. Eli Davis strikes out five in 2.2 innings of relief but gets tagged with the loss. Owen Fullerton finishes 2-for-4 with two doubles and a walk while driving in Sawyer Cyphers for the Lakers' lone run in the fifth inning. Catcher Colton Lefebvre adds a 3-for-5 effort and turns in a key defensive play by flipping to Pecor covering the plate for an out. Rishon Robenstein's diving catch in center field is another standout defensive moment.
