The boys of summer started their spring campaign on Monday as Jonesboro-Hodge High School traveled to Quitman for the season opener for both teams. As it turned out the contest didn’t last very long as the Wolverines parlayed 7 hits, 11 walks and 10 JHHS errors into a 22-0 victory that was called after 4 1/2 innings.
Maddox Duck garnered three of the hits, including a double with Kace West getting two hits. Pete Simonelli hit a single and Hudson Pullig a double to round out the hits for the Wolverines who opened with two runs in the first and six in the second before exploding for 14 runs in the bottom of third.
John Reagan Hasley allowed a single to Trey Trosclair to open the game then shut the Tigers down the remainder of the way to pick up the win firing four innings of one hit ball while striking out 7 in the shut out.
