"SHOUT OUTS"

With the end of another athletic season upon us I felt it would be appropriate to do what I haven't done much of since football season.......distribute some much deserved "Shout Outs"!

**When a school wins the MPSA All Sports Award in their classification you know they work hard with regards to development and discipline. Here's a big Da Man "Shout Out" to Brookhaven Academy for winning the prestigious award.

AA Baseball State Championship

Copiah leads AA champ. series 1-0 over Lee Academy

Copiah County Courier
The mighty Copiah Colonels, 29-3, plated 6 runs against the Lee Colts in the bottom of the first inning of the opening game of the State AA championship series in Gallman on Tuesday night and never looked back. The Colonels defeated the Colts 15-0 in five innings, as Colonel pitcher Scotty Reese picked up another win and another shutout.
Reese allowed only 4 hits during the short contest.
In addition to their explosion in the first inning off Colt pitcher Tony Antici, the Colonels scored 1 in the second, five in the third and 3 in the fourth. Russ Singleton had a 2-run homerun to right center in the third inning. Mitch Little and Bryce Guess had two singles apiece to pace the Colonel attack against four Colt pitchers.
Game 2 is scheduled for Thursday at 6:00 p.m. in Clarksdale. Because of a period of heavy rainfall lately, the game could be moved to Cleveland, MS. A decision will be made by the end of the day on Wednesday or early Thursday morning.
