Volunteer Falcons Baseball

[doubleplay96]

HUGE game tomorrow with conference rival Sullivan North at home. North is currently in 1st place and undefeated in conference play. Last time we played they squeeked by us 3-1 but hopefully this time will be a little different with us on the winning side. Rob will probly be on the hill and everytime he pitches we have a good shot at winning so it should be a good game not sure who they will throw probably hinkle or hanson. But hope to see a good crowd tomorrow night at 7 we need all the support we can get.

Help me here...Who goes to what school...including the guy who wished the swimming pool had been built...

Lol, I'm a Volunteer alumni. The comment about the swimming pool was an old joke with some buddies of mine. There used to be something about the Hawkins County School Boards had a choice between putting a swimming pool in Volunteer, or building Cherokee High School. Of course, that rumor was about as true as the idea of selling elevator passes to the freshmen.

Against a team like North.........when you have runners on you got to not leave them and get the runs in........we did that to many innings.............Go Falcons.

Sounded like they played a fairly decent game. Sorry, I missed. Had to make a run somewhere.........GO FALCONS......... thumb

That's been the story of the season. When they got the key hits, they won, when they didn't , they lost. One or two errors a game hasn't killed us, its been the lack of hitting in key situations.

 

Baseball's a simple game, ain't it?

Amen Backer, I know of 5 or 6 runners we left in scoring position. I don't think any of the errors were a big factor. Bottom line we scored a big goose egg, so 1 run was enough. As much as I hate to, you have to give the Raiders credit. They appear to be THE team in the Watauga. Just got back from watching them wax Betsy at Hunter Wright 10-0 in 6 innings. They just keep hitting and making the plays. Maybe someone will knock them off come Tourney time.

Now it's time to get ready for the Wash. Co. tourney and try to break the school record for wins. We still have a chance to do that but we are going to have to score some runs.

PS FalconBacker just want to thank you again for helping on the field these last severals days and all the other times you've been there working your tail off. Reminded me of the old Surgoinsville days, fighting rains, horseshows, Ruritans and City Recs just so our kids could play some competitive baseball. It's been well worth it. Thanks!

Right back atcha. Hope someone picks up where we leave off.

[doubleplay96]

Game got rained out today i think we are playing 2 games tomorrow and 1 friday instead of 2 friday. I believe the tmes for tomorrow are 4:30 and 6 @ Crockett.

[doubleplay96]

Big win today vs a very good Greeneville team. Score was 8-2 called in 5 innings due to rain. That puts us at 16-11 with a great shot at getting 20 wins and breaking the record. Game tomorrow night @ Crockett at 8:00. Saturday we will play University High.

 

By the way great job tonight pitching justo!

[illpete23]

I just realized something about REO Speedwagon...a couple of their members look like some of my teammates with longer hair...lol

 

Great job on a big win tonight Falcons...go ahead and break that record and then some...remember to take one game at a time, and remember that each game is a big game...
