The Jags played a great game today against the OKC Broncos in the first game of the West Regional Home School World Series.

Avery Penrod lead off the first inning with a double, but was thrown out trying to advance to third. Jeb Penrod reached on a fielder's choice and scored on Parker McDaniel's single. The Broncos answered with 4 runs in the 1st inning on only two hits.  Pitcher John Tyree retired the Broncos in order for the next three innings. The Jags added another run in the 3rd after Avery singled, Jeb hit a double.  Avery Penrod scored on Parker McDaniel's RBI single.  The Broncos added two more runs in the fifth after reaching on walks and being pushed across home plate following a double.  The Jags made it exciting in the top of the 7th, adding another run and then getting runners at 2nd and 3rd but they were left stranded.  It was a good hard fought game.  The Jags outhit the Broncos 10-4 and left many runners on base but came up short on the scoreboard.

John Tyree was the Jags starter. He pitched 5 innings allowing 6 runs (5 earned), only 3 hits and two strikeouts.  Avery Penrod finished the game allowing only 1 hit in the bottom of the 6th.
