It was a total team effort as the Venom took on the North Columbus Comets last night. With a substantial part of the team out for school events, the remaining 9 showed out all night. From the bottom of the lineup going 5 for 9 while driving in 4 and scoring 5 runs, to a dominating 2-hit outing from 3 pitchers, to a late-inning rundown at 3rd that featured all 9 fielders getting involved, it was all about being accountable to each other in the 12-2 win.

Offensive MVP- Gabe Walker turned in his best offensive performance of the year, going 2 for 3 with 2 RBI and a run scored.

Defensive MVP- Lennon Sharps not only pitched 2 excellent innings striking out 4, but he was a star on defense giving up his body on plays at 1st and always being in the right backup position to save the day

Following a DH sweep in the division on Saturday, the boys welcomed another division rival, OBC Youness, to their home field and improved to 3-0 in the division with an 18-3 thumping. The squad logged 14 hits in 26 at bats, drove in 15 RBI, needed 80 fewer pitches, and rode a dominant performance from the starter to extend their division lead.

Offensive MVP- Titus Fix drove in 3 runs from the cleanup spot and scored 4(!) times, while adding a stolen base to his performance.

Defensive MVP- Will Wiselogel has been unstoppable lately. Not only did he go the distance, he only needed to see 18 hitters on 58 pitches to get it done. He allowed only 2 earned runs and was firing strikes at a 64% rate. That’ll do.

In the back half of a division doubleheader, the Northside Venom collected their 10th win of the young season in grand fashion, beating the Hilliard Colts 13-2- the team’s 9th win while scoring 10 or more runs. The game saw 4 different Venom pitchers combine to allow only 5 hits across 37 at-bats, containing the Colts to only 2 runs in 7 innings of play.

Offensive MVP- Not only did Will Wiselogel hit a 310-foot tank, but he did it while going 3 for 3, driving in 4 runs and scoring twice. In the past 7 games, he leads the team in hits, extra base hits, and RBIs, and has done it without a single strikeout.

Defensive MVP- Jack Perdue proved why he was elected a captain, throwing out 3 runners on the basepaths and recording an out at the plate with incredible effort and athleticism. Have a day, 11!

Coaches weren’t the only ones raking this morning, as the Venom took on the Hilliard Colts in a COYBL division 1 vs. 2 matchup. After going down 3-9 in the 2nd, the pitchers went on for 6 innings, allowed 0 earned runs, and gave the bats a chance to take over the game. The boys spent the rest of the afternoon launching pitch after pitch over the outfielders’ heads, including in a pivotal 5th inning that saw three doubles to the fence in the span of 8 pitches, turning a 10-11 deficit into the 15-11 lead they’d ride to victory.

Offensive MVP- Colin Job manned the 3-spot and tallied 5 RBI, including a bases-loaded double that plated three runs that proved to be the difference in the game.

Defensive MVP- Jaxson Tiemeier tossed an epic outing on the mound. He was called on with the team in a deep 2nd inning hole and went on to deliver a clutch performance. He notched 5 IP averaging 13 pitches per inning, while surrendering 0 earned runs and putting on a PFP clinic on defense.

COYBL division play is officially underway, and the Venom started in grand fashion with a road win on the turf against the Worthington Nationals Blue team, 16-11. After a sluggish start, the pitching and defense were too much to overcome for the Nats and the Venom are now 1-0 in the division.

Offensive MVP- Taran Meador has come alive at the plate recently and was a force in this game, going 3 for 3 at the dish and knocking in 2, including the hit that broke the dam.

Defensive MVP- Brayden Calloway got extended time at second base and seized the opportunity. He notched a team high 7 defensive assists, demonstrated tremendous range, and came in clutch with the leather all night.

Earlier this week, the Venom hosted Olentangy Baseball Club in the rain. With most of the pitching staff depleted thanks to a 4-game weekend tournament, the bats took over and the boys came out on top, 19-4. Our two primary catchers rose to the occasion and combined to pitch an inning each with the regular hurlers out, striking out 3 to close the game.

Offensive MVP- Titus Fix put in work at the cleanup spot, with 2 hits, 2 RBIs, and 2 runs scored.

Defensive MVP- With the team out of options, Jack Perdue took the hill for the first time in 12 months and needed only 14 pitches to secure a 1-2-3 inning, including two punch-outs(!).

Earlier this week, the Northside Venom were welcomed to Sadler Field to be a part of the pregame festivities for the game between the Westerville South Wildcats and the Delaware Hayes Pacers. It was a special opportunity for the Venom and especially meaningful for our 3 rising wildcats (Jack Perdue, Hudson Ross, and Lennon Sharps) and our future Pacer (Brady Cochran). Shout out to Coach Brewer and Coach M for all the hospitality!

As part of the Breaking Stigmas tournament this past weekend, the boys played one of their most complete games of the season, taking down the Columbus Cobras and overcoming their hard-throwing ace. The Venom outhit the talented Cobras 8-7 and our pitchers dominated the game on the mound, combining for 6 IP, 2 ER and 9 Ks to seal the win, 11-7.

Offensive MVP- Dylan Sockrider did it all at the plate. He continued his impressive hit streak with two singles and a clutch double, driving in 4 RBIs and scoring once himself.

Defensive MVP- Colin Job was untouchable. Entering the game in the bottom of the fourth with the score knotted at five, #5 closed the game out in the final three innings by striking out six, allowing only two hits, and not giving up a single earned run.

Proud of the way these boys fought in the 2026 Breaking Stigmas tournament this past weekend benefitting mental health services at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. In the face of some of the best teams in Ohio, marathon pitching and clutch hitting in bracket play brought us within an inning of the bracket championship, but we fell just short. This is always a great tournament with a worthy cause.

The Northside Venom traveled out to Plain City tonight to complete a home and home with the future Jonathan Alder Pioneers. The bats came alive, the pitching was again dominant, and the fielding was sure-handed, as the Venom walked away with a 22-7 win.

Offensive MVP- Jax Tiemeier continued his offensive renaissance this season going 2 for 3 at the plate with 3 RBI and 2 runs scored, capped off by a frozen rope double to center with the bases loaded that served as the dagger.

Defensive MVP- Brady Cochran tossed a gem, throwing nearly 75% strikes, while striking out 3 and walking only 1 on his way to earning his second W of the young season.
