Damron dominates in Raiders' win

Alexis Damron

Only two things that went wrong for Raider Coach Doug Kesler in Thursday night's win over Lumpkin County. The first was his truck's side view mirror getting shattered by a foul ball and the second was a two run home run in the first inning from the same Lumpkin batter responsible for breaking his mirror two pitches earlier. From that point on Kesler's worries were put to rest as his sophomore reliever Alexis Damron mowed down Lumpkin batters in 5.2 innings of relief. Damron struck out 7 batters in the win.
Madison County, finishing region play with an 8-0 record, will host their region tournament series beginning September 29.
