Hunter Hildebrandt, Hunter Luepke, and Jake Meyers each had two hits for the Rockets. Luepke, Bobby Pilz, and Ryan Busse had two RBIs apiece.
Spencer hosts undefeated Neillsville on Tuesday. With a win, the Rockets would be in position to tie for the conference title with Neillsville. Spencer finishes its conference schedule at home against Colby on Thursday while Neillsville hosts Greenwood.
