In the second contest, Jordan Pace worked the first two innings with two strikeouts before Browning Benton pitched two innings. John Milledge took a 3-0 victory.

Anglin was 2-for-2 at the plate while Owen Brady was 1-for-2 and Pace was 1-for-3.

“Both games were well played,” said coach Dan Funt. “I was proud of our team’s effort. Pitching and defense kept us in both games. Our offense is still struggling, but has improved from the last couple of games.”

The Middle School Cougars will wrap up the spring schedule Saturday at home against Gatewood at noon.
