Mounties Sweep

The first War Eagle and Mountie baseball game was played at Arvest Park in Springdale. What a privilege to play there! There were a lot of fans - Coach E brought the football boys down and there were a lot of Heritage students - all cheering loudly. It was a beautiful day for baseball!
We got off to a good start and scored 2 runs in the first innings. Spanky had a double down the left field line, Payton walked and then Reed had a single between the shortstop and the 3rd basemen to score Collin (running for Spanky!). Payton was at third and scored on a passed ball. The Mounties scored 2 in the first also. It stayed 2-2 until the 4th. The Mounties got several hits and scored 5 runs. We scored another run in the 6th but couldn't get anymore across. We had a lot of opportunities but left way too many runners on. We play the Mounties again on Monday but the forecast doesn't look good... rain, rain, rain.
We actually got the game in on Monday. We played ok but the Mounties hit the ball all over the park - 15 singles - and won.
