LANIER MIDDLE BLOWS BROOKS AWAY
LANIER WASTED NO TIME IN SHOWING PLENTY OF OFFENSE AND DEPTH IN THEIR PITCHING STAFF. THE DAWGS POUNDED OUT 26 HITS, 1HOMERUN , 9 DOUBLES AND 27 STOLEN BASES IN A 21-1 (3INNINGS) AND A 18-0 (4INNING GAME) WHITEWASHING OF THE BROOKS COUNTY TROJANS. 6 PITCHERS COMBINED TO ALLOW JUST 2 SINGLES AND RECORDED 18 STRIKEOUTS. NATHAN BASS (7TH GRADE) AND ETHAN MCRAE (7TH GRADE) WERE THE WINNING PITCHERS. STUART COOPER (4-6), ETHAN MCRAE(4-6), AND RYAN ALLEN(3-5)
PROVIDED MOST OF THE FIRE POWER FOR THE DAWGS. RYAN WHITE AND GREG SEALEY ADDED 3 HITS AND SCORED 5 RUNS. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT 2 OF LANIER'S POEWR HITTER SAT OUT A 2 GAME SUSPENSION AND THEY WILL RETURN ON MONDAY IN A MUCH ANTICIPATED KEY CONFERENCE GAME WITH ATKINSON COUNTY ON MONDAY. THE SERIES BETWEEN THESE 2 WILL PROBABLY PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN DETERMINING THE CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP. WARE MAGNET AND CLINCH HAVE ALREADY FORFEITED THIER FIRST ONFERENCE GAME WITH LANIER DUE TO SCHEDULING PROBLEMS ON THEIR PART. LANIER ALSO PLAYS BERRIEN IN A 7TH GRADE NON CONFERENCE DOUBLE HEADER NEXT SATURDAY IN NASHVILLE .
