Obion County fell victim to Trinity Christian Academy and their airtight pitching crew on Friday. They lost 9-0 to the Lions.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Westview). They put the hurt on Bradford with a sharp 18-3 victory on Friday. The result was nothing new for the Chargers, who have now won 15 matches by six runs or more so far this season.
Myles McEwen spent all six innings played on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered three earned runs on eight hits.

Those four RBI gave McWherter a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Nolan Pritchett, who went 1-for-4 with one home run.
They weren't the only ones making solid contact: Westview kept the outfield on their toes and finished the game with 18 hits. That's the most hits they've managed all season.
Westview is on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five contests. That lines up perfectly with their 20-5 record this season. Those wins came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.6 runs over those games. As for Obion County, their defeat dropped their record down to 10-16.
Obion County might still be hurting after the 13-0 loss they got from Westview in their previous matchup back in March. Can the Rebels avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
