Fort Defiance 3, Alleghany 1

COVINGTON – Fort Defiance scored all of its runs in the first inning on Tuesday and that proved to be enough as the Indians defeated Alleghany, 3-1.

Luke Allen led off the first inning with a single to center but was erased on Noah Dulaney’s fielder’s choice groundout. After Carter Berry was hit by a pitch, Garrett Simmons delivered a double to center, scoring both runners for a quick 2-0 lead. Simmons took third on a passed ball and scored on Hunter Hamer’s sacrifice fly, making the score 3-0.

Nic Wilfong gave the Indians a strong effort on the mound, pitching five innings and allowing one run on five hits. He struck out four and walked four.

Camden Hansbrough came on in the sixth and recorded two outs. Wilson Cash recorded the final four outs to earn the save.

Wilson 7, Waynesboro 1

WAYNESBORO – Wilson scored two runs in the top of the first Tuesday and never trailed in a 7-1 Shenandoah District win over the Waynesboro Little Giants.

Wilson took advantage of three Waynesboro errors in the first inning to score two runs.

The Little Giants responded with a run in the bottom half of the first when Ka’Marion Martin led off with a single and scored on a double by Matherly to pull the home team to within 2-1.

Waynesboro padded its lead in the fourth inning on Addy Flesher’s inside-the-park, two-run homer, making the score 4-1.

That was more than enough run support for Wilson ace Christian Brewer who went the distance on the mound. Brewer allowed one run on seven hits. He struck out 10 and did not walk a batter.

Flesher had two of Wilson’s five hits and drove in a pair of runs.

Jasiah Berg was 2-for-3 for the Little Giants.
