ACAC Split

The Softball team fell to Adams Central tonight in their 3rd ACAC game of the season. The final score was 6-2. The game was close early. Then the Railroaders couldn't fight their way back after a bad 5th inning.

Coach Bishop's comments: The game was pretty well played overall 

but both teams did commit and error which lead to an unearned run for  each 

team. We are not hitting the ball in key situations and were not going to win many 

getting 4 hits a game and stranding runners. Adams Central had a big 5th inning 

getting 4 runs on 5 hits including 2 doubles and a triple finding the gaps. Our bunt 

coverage needs to improve along with the players reading the game themselves 

and thats in part to our lack of expierence. We need to regroup a little and start 

playing to our capabilities and everything would fall in place. 

The Baseball team had an impressive night defeating Adams Central 11-1 in 5 innings. Kylan LaMotte had a complete game. He worked through Adams Central's line-up forcing the Jets to leave runners stranded on 3rd base on several occasions. The Railroader bats came to life tonight. We put the ball in play nearly every inning. We even hit the umpire with a shot up the middle early in the game. The game was a great effort.

Thanks to all the fans who came out tonight in less than spectacular weather conditions. But, we were able to get the conference games in which is so important this time of year. Thanks to John Bennett, Coach Bishop, and Coach Andrews for their hard work getting the softball diamond ready to play. Thanks to John, Coach Mireles, and the baseball team for getting the Baseball field ready to play.

As far as I'm concerned we have officially had enough rain!
