Coach Benzinger gets 200th coaching win

Steven Binder pitched a complete game, striking out 7, and led the team with a homer and two RBIs as the Lions presented coach Brian Benzinger with his 200th coaching win with a 5-2 victory at Goshen Wednesday.

Will Shoemaker and Dylan Centers also homered for the 5-1 Lions who improved to 3-0 in the SBAAC.

"We didn't know it was his 200th win until Coach (John) Duncan told us and I'm excited just to be part of it," said Centers.

"What it says to me is that I've been really fortunate to have so many good players including this year's team and last year's," said Benzinger regarding his career win total. "I've had some dynamite players and going back to the early 2000s there's been some monster baseball teams here."

The Lions play at Clermnt Northeastern at 4:30 on Friday.
