Alton, off to its best start since breaking at 8-0 in 2017, improves to 5-2. CM is 3-5.   The teams have split their last eight games in the River Bend rivalry, but CM failed to put up a run against Alton for the first time since 2015 when five Redbirds pitchers combined for a 5-0 shutout in Alton. It took three Alton arms to silence the Eagles on Monday. After Siatos gave four runs and walked none with six strikeouts in five innings, Colton Wendle and Will Frasier each worked an inning to complete the Redbirds’ second shutout of the

Boys Varsity Soccer vs. Collinsville High School

Collinsville 4, Alton 1 - Alton was locked in a close game with Collinsville Wednesday night, trailing the Kahoks 2-1. But the Kahoks came out with a more intense defense, scored two more goals and went on to defeat the Redbirds 4- at Kahok Stadium. “Credit to Collinsville,” Alton coach Tyler Hamilton said. “They came out in the second half and turned the pressure up. We didn’t respond like I thought we would.” Alton’s goal in the first half was scored by Noah Hardin from assist by Simon McClain. The game was rescheduled from Tuesday night because of lightning. The Kahoks got a pair of goals from Adam Reiniger. With its victory, Collinsville raised its record to 5-4-2 overall and 2-1 in the Southwestern Conference. Alton is 0-7 overall and 0-3 in the conference. The Redbirds’ next game is set for Thursday at O’Fallon.

Two homers, two runs get Alton past East Alyson Haegele was in need of a little support from her teammates Thursday afternoon at Alton High. Lynna Fisher provided some. Fisher’s fourth-inning home run broke a tie and Haegele’s pitching closed out the Alton Redbirds’ 2-1 victory over the Belleville East Lancers in a Southwestern Conference softball game in Godfrey. Alton, which has won four in a row following a four-game losing streak, is 5-4 and 2-0 in the SWC. East had its four-game winning streak snapped and falls to 10-8 and 2-2 in the league. Emma Kiger’s home run in the second inning drew the Redbirds even at 1-1 after the Lancers plated a run in the first. The homers from Kiger and Fisher were the only hits Alton could muster against East pitcher Brooklyn Thouvenot, who retired the final eight Redbirds she faced to finish with three strikeouts and one walk. The Lancers led off the seventh inning with back-to-back singles, but Haegele stop
