First State Tournament Victory!

Monday the War Eagles made history again and won their first state tournament game. Congratulations!!! We finally got to play after waiting on it to stop raining for 3 days. We played Conway - they were the 3 seed from the 7A Central conference. We played in Fayetteville on a very wet field. This has become Payton's favorite field - he hit another home run there, his 3rd at Fayetteville for the season. Zac was on base (he went 5 for 5!) so that gave us a 2 run lead in the first. Travis pitched and Conway didn't do much against him except strike out (9 times!). No one from Conway got a hit until the 5th inning and we played great defense. Spanky added a home run in the 6th inning - Zac was on base again and scored! We ended up with 13 hits and won 7-3. Way to go War Eagles!!!
