The box score shows that our Burcham Bunch baseball ⚾️ team advanced last night 🌙 with an 8 – 3 victory at Magna Vista !
Inside the Numbers shows that young Connor Reece broke out his whooping stick not once but twice in support of Peyton Spencer.
The latest victory once again puts Carroll County High School 🏫 one victory away from the State Tournament. On Monday night, the team will head down to #1 seed Abingdon in hopes of punching 👊 their ticket 🎟.
Being a little brother is all about give and take. Connor enjoys his relationship with his Big Brother, so know that while their parents are proud as well, this one is about the Bash Brothers !
Grady Quesenberry joined in the Big Stick explosion with a 2-run rocket 🚀 to open the scoring.
Solid pitching and defense ➕️ the next man up mentality is the magic 🎩 potion for our baseball ⚾️ team. Thursday night was simply Conner’s turn and that made a day for Cody !
Editing Note 📝 MaxPreps spells his name two different ways in his Bio.

Post game interview…
The team started the season off at 0-3 but now sit at 14-6 on the season. The concern for rust stemmed from eight days without taking the field due to Mother Nature. The weather eliminated the entire Bull Run District tournament over the past week.
” We weren’t sure how we would look heading into the game,” said Knight. ” It’s never a good time to go that long without even being able to practice outdoors. “
Central – Woodstock is now set to host Page County on Tuesday night with a trip to the Class 2 State Tournament at stake. The Falcons captured their very first state crown 👑 last season, but they will be playing for the first time in 14 days when the Lady Panthers cross Massanutten Mountain.
Pence reached twice on near perfect bunt attempts, and both times, the Junior came around to score. Turner managed to touch home plate a game high three times, collecting two hits and 2 RBI on the night.

Phares helped her own cause in the top of the fourth inning by digging out of an 0-2 count and eventually reaching on an infield single that bounced off the third base bag. Caelyn Lucas and Mullins followed with back to back doubles to push the lead from 2-0 out to 4-0.
Tuesday night 🌙 at Central for a ticket 🎟 to State on the line. The 14-3 mark over the past 17 games includes two setbacks at the Falcons home diamond 💎.
