Wednesday, September 7, 2011

NAYLOR -- Backed by a complete game shutout from starter Jordon Pavy on Tuesday, the Risco Tigers defeated Naylor 4-0.

"Jordon just threw great," Risco coach Brandon Blankenship said. "He got ahead in the count and was efficient, We played excellent defense behind them as well, especially third baseman Austin White who started two of our double plays."

On offense, Chris Pavy went 2 for 4 with a triple while Matt Cummins reached three times with a triple and two walks.

Now at 3-4, Risco will host South Pemiscot on Thursday at 4:30 p.m.
