Head Coach Casey Burcham took his Cavaliers up I-81 to face Glenvar and the Varsity Skipper picked up another victory, this time a Three Rivers District W.

Coach Burcham takes us inside the chalk to describe the effort.

” We beat Glenvar tonight 4-1.  Dalton Busick lead us offensively with 2 hits.  Britt Berrier had a 2 RBI single that was big for us tonight. 

   Ben Phillips threw 4 innings giving up 1 hit and 1 earned run striking out 5.  Colby Goad threw the last 3 innings giving up no runs and only one hit for the save.

All around good team win.”

The Cavaliers are set to return to action Friday night when they host District foe James River High School at Bill Worrell Field.

Carroll County JV 11, Glenvar JV 2

Head Coach Adam Nester picked up his seventh straight victory to start the season as the Nester Nine jumped out to an early 6-0 lead and never looked back.

Leadoff hitter Chanson Rakes doubled to start the rally and added a walk later in the rally as CCHS sent 11 batters to the plate. The Cavaliers benefited from four walks and four wild pitches while putting the game on the edge of being over.

Reid Horton drew the start on the mound and pitched into the fifth inning before being relieved by Colton Quesenberry. The duo combined to limit the Highlanders to a pair of fifth inning runs while totalling nine strikeouts.

The Lady Cavaliers found themselves deep in a pitchers duel, trailing the Highlanders 1-0 heading into the bottom of the fifth inning. Glenvar plated two runs in the inning to push the lead out to 3-0 and that would prove to be the final score in the District opener.

” Defensively we played really well tonight ” said Head Coach Rick Nester. ” We only committed one error tonight but just couldn’t come up with the big hit when we needed it.”

Emma Harman started the game for the Lady Cavaliers and pitched into the fifth inning and gave way to Addie Greene. The duo held the Highlanders in check, allowing a season low three runs but they simply ran into a tough pitcher having a great night.

Carroll County returns to action on Friday night at Cavalier Park when the Knights of James River visit The Hill.

Fort Chiswell JV Softball 12, Carroll County 1.

Carroll County JV were forced to find an opponent outside of the District as Glenvar is not fielding a Junior Varsity team this season. CCHS came up short against Fort Chiswell. The team continues to gain valuable experience under Head Coach Alexis Dalton.

The younger version of the Lady Cavaliers are also set to host James River Friday night at home.

Carroll County High and Glenvar High four more times – twice in Tennis 🎾 and twice more in Boys soccer ⚽️. It’s the hope to add those results to this story.

The Hill – Carroll County JV Baseball ⚾️ is 6-0 and set to host the Glenvar Highlanders at Bill Worrell Baseball Field and this will be Ground Zero for the efforts to gather all eight scores from tonight’s action 🎬.

Adam Nester has hit the ground running 🏃‍♂️ after taking over as Head Coach after Steve Combs moved up to become the Assistant Coach of the Varsity program. Six games = six victories, five by shutout and they won by the slimmest of margins & the widest along the way.

The tempature reads 46° but the wind tells a different story. But baseball ⚾️ is baseball. so they show will go on.

Junior Varsity Baseball started out with 18 players but is now at 16. Blake Reed has joined the Varsity team and Dane Leonard is in a walking 🚶‍♂️ boot 👢.

  It’s 4pm now and this Post 📫 will run through the end of the night 🌙 so check back early and often as its a BUSY night for the Cavaliers !

JV Baseball ⚾️ leads 6-0 after 1 inning on The Hill !

Tennis 🎾 x 2 get added to the list, bringing the total to seven today versus the Highlanders and one with Fort Chiswell. Glenvar took a 1-0 lead last night 🌙 as their Girls 👧 Soccer team defeated the Lady Cavaliers.

Please note 📝 that the JV Softball game is at Fort Chiswell, not Glenvar.

Carroll County opened the season with four consecutive shutout victories in the debut season for Head Coach Adrienne Harris but Monday night 🌙 they fell short against a Highlanders squad that is searching for a 3-peat in both the Three Rivers District and Class 2.

The hope of slowing down Glenvar at the start of the game didn’t work out the way Carroll County had hoped as the home team scored two quick goals in the opening minutes. The score at the half was 5-0 and the final 8-0.

CCHS had an opportunity to trim the lead to 2-1 as Callie Harris worked herself free midway through the opening half but was turned away. Glenvar responded with its third goal shortly after and then continued to pull away.

Due to upgrades taking place at Tommy Thompson Field this spring, the team has yet to play a home game thus far. Sitting at 4-1 without playing in front of home fans is an encouraging start to the season and the next match will be a great opportunity for a bounce back tilt.

The Lady 👩 Cavaliers will return to the Pitch Friday night in Buchanan when they take on James River High School 🏫.
