Simpson Academy was sadly handed a defeat on Thursday, but Benjamin Kennedy did his best to prevent it. Kennedy pitched one inning while giving up no earned runs or hits. The effort marked the fewest earned runs he has had since back in February.
Even though Kennedy couldn't lead Simpson Academy over East Rankin Academy, he won't have to wait long to try again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Sadly, Kennedy's big day wasn't enough to stop the loss, which snapped the Cougars' four-game streak of wins at home. With the streak broken, Kennedy and the Cougars surely have a bit of extra motivation heading into Friday's match. Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other baseball content.
