Yellow Jackets win against Cherokee, Andrews
In the first game of the season played at home, the Jackets simply overpowered their opponent with a 12 to 0 score. The game was called in the 4th Inning. Senior Casey Bracken held the Cherokee Braves to a single hit in this shutout. Blasting away for Hayesville's 12 runs off of 11 hits were Cory Cox, C. J. Crowder, Ian McLamb, Brett Moody, Barrett Woody, Cory Rogers,, Derek Patton, Jon Beni, and Tyler Vaughn, who had four hits and drove in two runs. In addition to doing some outstanding pitching, Bracken also had three hits and scored two runs to give the Jackets a lopsided victory; On Monday, the Jackets traveled to Andrews to take on the Wildcats, and they managed to overpower them before the game was called after five innings. In that game with pitching by both Casey Bracken and Cory Cox, and with most of the Yellow Jacket getting a piece of the ball--7 players garnered 12 hits among them--Hayesville eeked out a mere 16 to 4 vctory.
Also blasting away in Andrews were: Cory Cox, Tyler Vaughn, C. J. Crowder, and Ian McLamb, Tyler Vaughn picked up three hits for three times at bat. Hayesville takes on Franklin at home today, March 7 at 4 p.m.. If the weather is good, you might want to come on out and root on the Jackets. Actually, you can come on out even if the weather isn't so good, and in this iffy weather, who knows?
Still, there is no question about the strong team Hayesville is fielding this year. It should make for some exciting activity.
