Tigers Punch Their Ticket to State!!!!!!!

For the second consecutive year the Tigers will be particpating in the TSSAA State Tournament. The Tigers once again traveled to Chattanooga to take on a private school with a very impressive record, with the same outcome. This year the Tigers would be taking on SIlverdale Academy coming in with a 21-5 record. The Tigers jumped out to 2-0 lead in the seccond inning and never looked back as they never trailed in the 10-1 victory. Bobby Parliment led off the second with a single, but was thrown out attempting to steal second, Adam Goolsby drew a walk and Nathaniel Hall hit a double giving the Tigers runners on second and third with 2 outs, Goolsby got the first run on a wild pitch and Luke Blackburn drove in Hall with a single. The Seahawks threatened to answer as they led of the bottom of the second with back to back singles, but a failed bunt attempt left the runner too far off second and catcher Justin Vaden threw a laser to get the runner, then Hunter Mann got a groundball that yielded a double play to end the threat. Both teams got out of jams int he third and fourth innings without yielding any runs. In the 5th the Tigers tacked on 3 runs off no hits, as the Tigers took advantage of 4 Seahawk errors  and 1 walk. Then much like last year the Tigers put the nail in the coffin in the 6th with 5 runs, as Luke Blackburn, Leith McKinney, Joey Parliment, and Hunter Davis ripped off 4 consecutive hits, and Bobby Parliment hit a 2 run homerun to give the Tigers a 10-0 lead. The Seahawks  hit a solo homerun in the 6th to extend the game to the 7th inning, but could not score another run. 

Offensively the Tigers had 10 hits as Bobby Parliment had 3 hits and Luke Blackburn was next with 2 hits, Joey Parliment, Hunter Davis, Justin Vaden, Nathaniel Hall, and leith McKinney all had 1 each. hunter Mann got the start and the win as he went 6 innings giving up 1 run off 7 hits, 1 walk, and 4 strikeouts. Bobby Parliment pitched the final inning givinng up no runs off no hits and 1 strikeout.

The Tiger will be in action Tuesday night at 6:30 at Riverdal as they face Huntingdon.
