Final from the Donnie Strader Baseball Press Box at Northeast Guilford High School, home of the NEG Rams:
Northeast Guilford 11, Dudley 1 (6 Innings)
WP:Drew Tippett/LP:Jamal Turner…Tippett for NEG with a 6-inning Complete Game victory…
NEG(4-7)/Dudley(3-6)….“Performance of the Night” goes to Drew Tippett and Dylan Faucette from NEG…..

NEG scored 11 runs on 6 hits and the Rams drew 8 walks and were hit by four pitches….Four RBI on two, two-run singles by Dylan Faucette for NEG….Preston Collie did not dog it tonight, he scored 3 Ram runs and connected on a Double for NEG…Also a Ram double tonight for Cody Donnell…
The Panthers got on the board first tonight and Dudley led 1-0 after one complete inning…The Dudley run, which would go on to be their lone run of the night versus NEG starter Andrew/Drew Tippett, that Panther run was aided by two Ram errors in that first inning…After NEG posted two runs in the bottom of the second frame, the game and the outcome were never in doubt and the Rams rode Tippett’s pitching and Faucette’s bat to a chilly but very productive NEG victory….Dudley put up their one run and it came on four hits and NEG committed three errors, with two of those coming on back-to-back miscues way back in the first inning and their other NEG ‘E’ came on third that the Ram’s catcher Justin Brady could not get down to first in time to get Jamal Turner….

The way the line score was running tonight at NEG:
