After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Johnson Central, Letcher County Central was happy to have turned things around on Tuesday. They were the clear victors by an 11-1 margin over the Jenkins Cavaliers. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Cougars considering their one-run performance the match before.

Dylan Eldridge looked comfortable as he tossed three innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than two walks in four consecutive appearances.

At the plate, Quentin Williams was incredible, going 2-for-4 with three RBI, one triple, and one stolen base. That's the most RBI he has posted since back in March. The team also got some help courtesy of Dawson Kincer, who got on base in two of his four plate appearances with two stolen bases, two runs, and one RBI.

Letcher County Central moved to 15-11 with that win, which also ended their four-game losing streak. As for Jenkins, they are on a ten-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-17.

Looking ahead, Letcher County Central will head out on the road to challenge Harlan County at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The Cougars are facing the Black Bears at the right time seeing as the Black Bears are stuck on a four-game losing streak. As for Jenkins, they will welcome Cordia at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Lions have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 15.12 runs per game on average), something the Cavaliers will no doubt try to take advantage of.
