Sammy Hampton will be making his first start of his senior season, today at 5:00 PM, against Three Rivers Conference rival, Unicoi County. Hampton threw six shutout innings in the 2010 District 1 AA Tournament against the Happy Valley Warriors, before the Warriors got to him in the 7th. Sammy wants the ball in big games, and although some would argue the second game of the year is never a big one, when you are Johnson County, coming off a big Opening Day win and looking to move to 2-0 in the conference, I would say that yes, today is a big game. Unicoi County is looking to even their conference record up at 1-1, as the Blue Devils lost to the Sullivan North Raiders on Monday by the score of 7-3. Hope to see you at the ballpark.
