Final after 7. A monsoon hit in the first inning, but weather wasn't to bad after that. Game was played at Franklin. Both teams hit the ball well, and Owen got some good pitching out of junior Corey Towles.

Interesting score. Was Franklin County resting their starters for their district game against Western Hills tomorrow? Wonder if Franklin County had a bad game, Owen had a great game, or a combination of both? Any details from a Franklin County fan? Impressive for Owen County to make is such a good game nonetheless.

They were not resting their position players, but I think Franklin threw off until the last inning. Also Franklin's Coach got mad at a few of his starters and benched them.

Rule 13

After getting up 7-0 and knowing that they are playing a rival the next day, I would say that the Flyers got complacent. Very easy for teenage boys to do. I think keeping teams focused throughout the entire season is the toughest job a high school coach faces. That being said give a lot of credit to Owen County for not hanging their heads after a big deficit early and fighting all the way until the last out. That type of fight will benefit the Rebels come tournament time.
