Scotts Hill unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They fell just short of the McNairy Central Bobcats by a score of 2-0 on Monday. The Lions were not able to make up for their defeat to the Bobcats from their previous meeting back in April of 2024.
Jonas Howard was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he struck out six batters over 4.2 innings while giving up just two earned runs off six hits (and only one walk).
On the hitting side, Scotts Hill saw two different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Cy Maness, who went 2-for-3 with two doubles.
While Scotts Hill had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair's next game is a rematch scheduled at 6:05 p.m. on Tuesday.
