  • St. Edward winning pitcher Jacob Koehring greets teammates as they come off the field after defeating Aurora Christian 3-2 Thursday in the 2A regional game in Elgin.

    Homers put St. Edward in regional final May 16, 2013 12:00 AM
    The wind didn’t blow at gale force Thursday afternoon in Elgin. Perhaps 10-15 mph sustained. But the warm, southerly wind blew straight up the hill upon which Westminster Christian’s tony baseball diamond sits and straight out to left field, thereby creating a lifting effect that turned any flyball hit in that direction from ordinary to extraordinary. St. Edward hit 2 such flies: Jack Tierney’s first-inning, 2-run home run and Tighe Koehring’s solo shot to lead off the bottom of the fourth inning. Koehring’s home run gave No. 2 St. Edward a 3-2 lead it never relinquished in a Class 2A regional semifinal victory over No. 3 Aurora Christian.
