It may have taken eight innings to finish the job, but Jacksboro ultimately got the result they hoped for on Friday.

The team also got some help courtesy of Starr Wesson, who went 3-for-4 with two RBI.

They weren't the only one making solid contact: Jacksboro kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 12 hits. They are 8-1 when they post 11 or more hits.
