correction and a thank you

John, Sun Valley had 3 runs.
Thanks for the kind words. It was our first game with our new coach and some other players. Good game, we made some errors which we will work on.
Great hit over the fence! Give her a hug from me.
It's always a good game between our two teams. I think we all had a good time even with the score.
Take care.

 

South Lenoir 10
North Lenoir 1

 

I believe East Burke will be the team to watch in the NW4A. With 5 senior leaders,A.Abernathy,Hermon,Shelton,Lewis and P.Abernathy along with the very good Junior pitcher Holly Hudson and Sophomore sensation Dakota Icard this team may be a solid threat for 2nd place in the league behind the favorite Alexander Central. I also hear they have a very good freshman in Kayla Shelton that may contribute also.

 

West Johnson 10
Harnett Central 0
Alexis Betancourt(wp) 14 Ks, 3 hits
Emma Cotton(lp) ??? falling down on the job
Good hits and aggresive play by WJ proved to be too much for HC.

Should be a great game Wednesday when Middle Creek pays a visit to West Johnson.
