The Baseball team started off the season strong with three straight wins against Wauseon High school, Rossford High school, and Napoleon High school. The team then took a step back in their last game losing 7 to 4 home to Paulding High School. During the game the Bulldogs just could not get going on defense or offense. While batting the team only tallied a total of 7 hits on the game. While on defense started to slip in the thir3rd inning allowing paulding to get up by two runs after the Bulldogs struck first by scoring in the seconds inning. The Bulldogs would try to battle back by earning two runs in the bottom of the 4th. Then Paulding would respond with two runs of their own in the top of the 5th inning. The Bulldogs would not be able to overcome the Paulding defense with them only scoring one more run over the next three innings. The decision went to Paulding pitcher McGarvey, while the lost went to Mark Butler who falls to 0-1 on the season.
The team hopes to bounce back against Wapokeneta today led by Camden Roth a senior on the team. When on defense Camden primarily will play catcher. When Camden is lined up at the plate is where he will really do his damage against an opposing team. Camden leads or is tied in all major categories for the Bulldogs. So everybody needs to cheer on the Bulldogs tonight as they travel to Wapakoneta High school, and don’t forget to follow the team back home as they take on St. Mary’s high school this Saturday. If you can’t make it to the game Saturday it will be broadcasting on 105.7 FM radio, and as always GO
