Baseball – Coach Bramlett, head baseball coach, reported that OC lost against Hartwell last Friday afternoon.  He provided the stats to that game but suffice it to say we lost and it’s time to move on. 

        In the rematch, at Lexington on Monday, OC lost that one, too, but it was far closer than Friday’s match-up. 

        Clay Ogle started on the mound for OC and pitched six and a third innings.  He had one earned run but Hart had eight runs on eight hits and seven OC errors.  The flip side is that OC had three runs on three hits and four Hart errors.  Ogle also struck out eight Hart batters while on the mound.  J.D. Sharp came in for two thirds of an inning striking out one. 

        Ogle was 1-4 with a run; Jacob Hester was 1-2 with a run. 

        On Wednesday, April 11^th, the Patriots face Jackson Co at home, then on Friday, April 13^th OC travels to Jackson Co for the rematch. Coach Bramlett also says that between April 16^th and 28^th the region tournament will take place consisting of seven games.  The details have yet to be determined. 

        The JV Patriots will play Saturday, April 14th - JV Tournament at Commerce at 12:30pm. If we win we play at 5:30 in the championship game, if we lose we play at 3:00 in the consolation game.  The JV is also scheduled to play Prince Avenue on Monday, April 16^th at Prince. 

        Thanks to Coach Bramlett for providing game stats and schedule information.
