Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Checotah). They never let the Morris Eagles get on the board and left with a 14-0 win on Friday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Wildcats considering their two-run performance the matchup before.

Mason Rainbolt made a big impact no matter where he played. He struck out seven batters over two innings while giving up no earned runs or hits (and not a single walk). Rainbolt was also big at the plate, scoring a run and stealing a base while going 3-for-4. He also put up a double, which was his first of the season.

In other batting news, Checotah let Dalton Carter and Dallas Carter run wild. Dalton scored two runs while going 2-for-2, while Dallas scored a run while going 3-for-3. The team also got some help courtesy of Treagan DuVall, who scored two runs while going 3-for-3.

Checotah always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .786. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.

With the victory, Checotah broke their three-game losing streak and moved their record to 2-6. As for Morris, they are on an 11-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-4.

Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. A feisty cat fight will be fought as Checotah Wildcats duke it out with Stigler Panthers at 11:30 a.m. on Monday. Stigler will roll in looking for their seventh straight win, something Checotah surely won't give up without a fight. As for Morris, they will be playing in front of their home fans against Heavener at 1:00 p.m. on Monday. Heavener has struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 12.8 runs per game on average), something Morris will no doubt try to take advantage of.
