Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Alcorn Central). Their pitcher stepped up to hand the Hickory Flat Rebels a 15-0 shutout on Monday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Bears considering their two-run performance the match before.
Alcorn Central's victory was truly a team effort as five different players contributed at least one hit. One of them was Noah Canten, who fired off two home runs and five RBI while going 2-for-4. That's the most home runs Canten has posted since back in April of 2024. Kreed McCoy also deserves some recognition as he brought in his first RBI of the season.
Alcorn Central hit smart and finished the game with only two strikeouts. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now struck out at most five strikeouts in six consecutive contests.
Alcorn Central is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a massive bump to their 4-6 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their pitching effort, having only surrendered 2.0 runs on average over those games. Hickory Flat is on a ten-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-8.
Coincidentally, Alcorn Central and Hickory Flat will both be playing Adamsville the next time they take the field. Hickory Flat will head out to face Adamsville at 2:30 p.m. on Monday, while Alcorn Central will play them later in the day, at 5:00 p.m.
