The Mason Comets will take on the McCallie Blue Tornado in a tournament on Saturday.
Mason had to start their season on the road on Friday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell just short of Collierville by a score of 4-3.
Brett Gandert was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he pitched five innings while giving up just two earned runs off five hits.
Riverdale typically has all the answers at home, but on Friday McCallie proved too difficult a challenge. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Warriors, sneaking past 7-5.
Sam Gibler looked comfortable as he pitched two innings while giving up no earned runs off one hit. He has been consistent recently: he hasn't given up more than one hit in three consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Carter Noland and Noah Wilson did most of the damage at the plate: Noland got on base in three of his four plate appearances with two runs and one RBI, while Wilson went 3-for-4 with one run and one RBI. That's the most runs Noland has posted over his last 14 games. The team also got some help courtesy of Louis Fortier, who went 1-for-3 with two RBI and one double.
