10 runs? Jackson pitch?

Have you seen Karys Black pitch?

10 runs? Jackson pitch?

No she did not. 9th grader Kary’s Black pitched for Boone Co. Highlands Pitched 7th grader Kennedy Baioni and gave 8th grader Gracie Schlosser the Game off. I know 10-9 is a lot of runs but who’s to say that Both teams aren’t very good Hitting teams. With the youth movement on the mound it appears Highlands is going to be around for a little while. Highlands only Starts One Sr & Two JR’s....

The Ladybirds score in the Bottom of the 7th on a wild Pitch.

Congrats Brad.....

I ran into him at the Highlands vs Conner Girls game a few weeks back and when I asked him if he was Interested in Coaching again he winked at me and said I would like to take a stab at the Holmes job. I said nothing like going back home and he quickly responded by saying I'm at home in Ft Thomas too.:thumb: Brad is one of the good guys out there.....

Good luck my Brother!

Game recap...

Fort Thomas Matters Sports: Highlands Starts Season with Win

The Ladybirds scored Early & Often in this Contest. Great way to start off the Season.

The Game originally scheduled to be played at Brossart has been moved the “Birdcage” in Ft Thomas today. Varsity game will be at 5 p.m. with the JV to follow.

“Let’s play Ball”

The Boone Co Rebels traveled to Ft Thomas tonight to take on the Ladybirds.

Senior Olivia Jackson started for Boone Co and 8th grader Gracie Schlosser threw for the Birds. Boone Co plated 1 in the top of the 1st and HHS went scoreless. However in the 2nd the Birds tied the Score and then took the Lead with a 2 Run Johnson by Soph Taylar Lorenzen.

Form there the Birds never looked back by scoring 3 more runs in the 3rd and another one in the 5th. Boone managed to score their other lone run in the 3rd.

Boone’s Karys Black took over for Jackson in the 4th & 5th While Highlands inserted 7th grader Kennedy Baioni who threw 2 scoreless innings.

Both squads JV teams pretty much took over from there and finished the 6th & 7th innings with Boone scoring 4 and HHS scoring 3.

What a great way to kick off the 2018 season! Both teams have a ton of work to do but it was nice to finally see some other Pitching outside of Practice. HHS opens at home this coming Tues against 10th region top dog Campbell Co.
