Cloniger for NG was throwing some of the best off speed stuff I have seen this year. Really had the Crest batters off balanced. Asher Smith was effective for Crest but NG did great job of manufacturing runs.Two mild upsets:
North Gaston beat Crest last night
South Point beat KM
The Big South should have a good showing in the playoffs. I don't think any of them has enough to win it, but 4 very solid teams that are tough to beat.Cloniger for NG was throwing some of the best off speed stuff I have seen this year.

Top 4 of the Big South going to make an exciting finish.
Great game! Thanks for the updates.Well we have a final St Stephens 13. Hickory 11. It’s been a good one and a looong game.
I got there early enough to catch half the JV game. St Stephens was up 3-0 but Hickory came back and won 6-3. The Varsity game was supposed to start at 6:30 but they didn’t get started until about 6:50. The game lasted good 3 hrs. Longest HS baseball game I believe I ever attended. So between both games it made it to seem really long. But both games were really good to watch.Great game! Thanks for the updates.

They have another live arm in Carter Jessen and an effective arm they have been using as a closer with Hunter Reavis. Depending on the potential 2nd round match up I wouldn't be surprised to see Jessen in round 1.Stuart Cramer with Britain on the bump in round 1 is going to be tough for whoever.
