Jacksonville Christian Academy had to kick off their season on the road on Saturday, but they showed no ill effects. Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Talladega Tigers a 16-0 shutout.
Noah Lee was a major factor no matter where he played. He struck out nine batters over three innings while giving up no earned runs off two hits (and not a single walk). Lee was also stellar in the batter's box, going 3-for-4 with one home run, five RBI, and two runs.
In other batting news, Jacksonville Christian Academy let Jessie Gannaway and Bryson Dowdey run wild. Gannaway scored three runs while getting on base in three of his four plate appearances, while Dowdey scored three runs and stole a base while going 2-for-3. Caleb Stallings was another key player, scoring two runs while going 1-for-2.
Jacksonville Christian Academy will have a chance to go back-to-back against Talladega: the pair will be back at it again later today.
