The Warriors

In the dramatic fashion they are used to, the 8th grade boys battled to a 6-5 win over Orange last night. After falling down 3-1 they took the lead in the 4th and then held on in the bottom half of the 6th with bases loaded, to take the win home to Liberty. It was an awesome team win. Go Warriors!
