While Friday's win was certainly a team effort, someone pulling more than their own weight was underclassman Richard Cooper. East had no answer to Cooper on Friday as he didn't allow a single earned run and only two hits while striking out 13 over 6.2 innings pitched.
Cooper and North will have some time to savor their victory since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Firestone at 5:00 p.m. on April 9th. North has not beaten Firestone recently, having gone 0-3 since April of 2019.
