Conner Senters tracked down this ball in left field.


While Friday brought sunny skies and cool temperatures, the Royals home field still needed time to dry out. So what would've been a home game Friday night against West Laurens was moved to Dexter Saturday afternoon.

Matthew Bland sets to throw from short.


A J.R. Fordham RBI groundout and wild pitch in the second put BC on top. BC added three in the third, including two runs coming home on Steven Knighton’s groundout. Brody Little had his third hit in a two-run fourth.

Peyton Wimberly makes a catch deep in centerfield.


That capped all scoring in a Royals 7-1 win. Little was 3 for 3 with a double. Carson Waters went 2 for 5. Pitchers Jack Fernandez, Knighton, and Conner Senters combined to give up one run, five hits, two walks. Raider pitching hit four batters including one with the bases loaded.

J.R. Fordham caught this ball for the game's final out.


BCHS plays at Swainsboro March 9. Game time is 5:30 pm.
