Game: Cary Academy vs. River Mill
Date: 3/1/08 (2:30)
The Chargers came out swinging, hoping
for another win. The Jaguars pitching just wasn’t there,
since they were a new and young team. The Chargers scored 10
runs in the first inning. The jaguars could not hit the
ball, so players were not getting on base. The Chargers were
on with their hitting, base running, and fielding.
