Leake Academy 3
Behind two home runs from Harrison Thomas, the Raiders rallied for a division win on the road Tuesday. Trailing 2-0 after the first inning, Thomas knotted the game with a two-run shot in the third and then put Lamar up with a three-run blast in the top of the seventh, plating Beau Burns and Witt Haggard. Leake would answer with one run in the bottom of the seventh, but couldn't complete the rally. In addition to Thomas' two home runs and five RBIs, Burns had three hits for Lamar in support of John Countiss, who improved to 2-1, after striking out six and scattering six hits.
