Hoover found a leader in Riley Johnson as the squad took down Shady Spring on Monday. The Tigers had no answer to Johnson as he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out six over five innings pitched. Johnson has been nothing but reliable on the mound: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in four consecutive appearances.
Coming up, Hoover's homestand will continue as they prepare to take on Sissonville at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The last time Johnson took on the Indians, he pitched 5.2 innings while giving up just one earned (and four unearned) runs off four hits. Can he match (or beat) that stellar performance? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other baseball content.
