Knights, Panthers split doubleheader

Wednesday, September 22, 2010

The Northeast Vernon County Knights split their doubleheader with the Sheldon Panthers Monday. Above, sophomore Seth Alexander started off pitching for the Knights, but the Knights seemed to be plagued by errors and couldn't seem to get their bats going. Sophomore Jacob Maus came in to relieve Alexander in later innings finishing the game. The Panthers won the first round with a 10-4 victory but the Knights came back in the second game, winning 1-0. The second game featured a pitchers' dual from Sheldon Junior Eric Leavell and NEVC Junior Grant Davis. NEVC came out with the victory 1-0 on an unearned run scored by Davis in the top of the fourth inning. Davis finished the game with 13 strikeouts and Leavell finished the game with 7 strikeouts. Sheldon will host Hume on Friday. Sheldon is now 2-1 on the season.
