Recently in OPT news:

After getting off to a quick 2-0 start OPT ran into a brick wall in the form of Hildebrand Sporting Goods losing by a score of not enough to way too many. This was followed by a couple of tough one run loses to Shaker and Ronbo's. 

Against Shaker they were unable to hold a one run lead going into the bottom of the seventh inning eventually losing 7-6 on a sacrifice fly by Will Thompson. Colin O'brien went 3 for 3 with a double, two singles and a walk in the losing effort.

Against Ronbo's a great comeback fell one run short in the the bottom of the seventh. Losing 8-3 going into the final frame OPT scored 4 runs getting close enough to make a game of it but they were unable to get the tying run in from third. Colin O'Brien and Nick Brown both had 2 hits in the loss.
