Covington Holy Cross 7 Danville 1 (All 'A' sectional)


Recommended Posts

Fuller's blast no doubt set the tone for the game in the top of the 1st, putting HC up 2-0. After Tiberi gives up a run in the bottom of 1st, he was outstanding the rest of the game yielding only 3 hits. Story of the game IMO though was pitching and defense. Danville struggled on their home field committing 6 errors, meanwhile the visiting Indians were error-free, making several nice plays. The game was played in a steady mist/rain that never got heavy until HC's bus pulled away after the game.

 

The Caudill kid that threw for Danville is a very solid pitcher who throws very hard with a nice curveball to add to it. I heard there was a radar gun there after the game and they said Caudill threw consistently in the mid-upper 80s with 1 pitch clocked at 91. Tiberi was in low-mid 80s all night long and had his curveball and changeup working all night.

 

Hats off to Danville. A great setting for a High School game and they had their field in great shape considering the rain that went through there yesterday.

 

HC advances to the 8-team All A State tournament on May 5th where they will take on Walton Verona in the first round at 9:15 am.

Cov Cath was already ranked 4th this week (HC unranked this week, however has to get consideration after this win and also having a road win at Harrison Co earlier) so IMO Cov Cath was already at that level now, also considering their 21-1 record. CC has defeated HC twice already this year (6-3 and 4-1) however i will note that CC hasn't seen any of the top pitchers for Holy Cross yet. District seed game between CC and HC to be played on May 10th.
