GAME RECAP: Viera Baseball Dominates Melbourne in 10-Run Showcase, Edgewood Girls LAX Triumphs Over Satellite
The Space Coast sports scene was electric last night as local high school teams battled it out on the diamond and lacrosse field. Viera High School’s baseball squad put on a hitting clinic against Melbourne, while Edgewood’s girls lacrosse team secured a statement victory over Satellite. Let’s dive into all the action!
Hawks Soar Above Bulldogs in Offensive Explosion
I was at Hawks Stadium last night, and let me tell you – Viera’s baseball team came to play! The Hawks defended their home turf in impressive fashion, crushing Melbourne 10-3 in a game that showcased their offensive firepower.
Viera racked up an impressive 12 hits, with their lineup looking disciplined and dangerous from top to bottom. The win improves their season record to 8-4, positioning them well as they continue their campaign for district supremacy.
“Our guys were locked in at the plate tonight,” said one Viera coach. “When we’re making solid contact and being patient with our approach, we can put up runs against anybody.”
Melbourne’s pitchers struggled to find answers against the Hawks’ batting order, which seemed to find gaps all over the field. Despite a late-game rally attempt, the Bulldogs couldn’t overcome the substantial deficit.
Game Highlights
- Viera’s offense: 10 runs on 12 hits
- Stellar defensive play, limiting Melbourne to just 3 runs
- Key performances from multiple Hawks players both at bat and in the field
- Improved season record to 8-4

On the lacrosse front, Edgewood’s girls team delivered a clutch performance against Satellite in what turned out to be one of the most exciting contests of the season. The Indians showcased their skill and determination in securing the victory over the Scorpions.
This win represents a significant milestone for the Edgewood program, which continues to build momentum in the competitive Brevard County lacrosse landscape.
Both teams displayed exceptional skill and sportsmanship throughout the match, but it was Edgewood’s execution in key moments that ultimately made the difference.
