Marin Catholic’s 26-2 rout lands in Marin County spotlight
It all happened on a spring evening, with fans from Mill Valley and Corte Madera showing up. The Wildcats put on a dominant offensive show, taking a ten-run lead early and never letting Tamalpais recover.
Scoring 26 runs set a new season high for Marin Catholic. Coaches in Sausalito, Larkspur, and Greenbrae are definitely paying attention as postseason gets closer.
With this win, Marin Catholic improved to 6-1. The team’s been on a hot streak, averaging about 15.8 runs per game over the last four contests.
The offense was relentless, and the defense kept things tight. Local scouts and fans from Tiburon to Novato probably had plenty to talk about after this one.
Cooper Mitchell: a dominant mound presence and dangerous plate
Mitchell delivered the kind of pitching coaches love to see. He threw four innings, gave up just one hit, and didn’t allow any earned runs, striking out seven.
At the plate, he reached base all four times and scored four runs—a personal best. When Marin Catholic needed steady innings, Mitchell brought both heat and control, holding Tamalpais to just a few baserunners.
Walker Untermann: a historic 5-for-6 night with three homers, nine RBIs
Untermann absolutely stole the show on offense. He went 5-for-6 with three home runs, nine RBIs, and scored four runs.
Those five hits tied his career best and helped the team hit .489 for the night. Fans from San Rafael and across the North Bay who made the trip to Tamalpais High saw a real power display as the Wildcats dominated deep into the night.
Johnny Greco: stepping up in multiple facets
Greco chipped in with a 2-for-5 night, two runs, and two RBIs, plus a stolen base. His speed on the bases and steady bat made a difference in the lineup.
In Marin County, where players often do a bit of everything, Greco’s all-around game showed just how balanced this Wildcats squad is. Folks from Novato to Sausalito are probably taking notice.

The 26-2 victory wasn’t just about one player. It showed Marin Catholic’s depth and their steady, relentless play.
The Wildcats are on a four-game win streak. They’re tearing it up, averaging 15.8 runs per game during this stretch.
