Sawyer Lovvorn did a little bit of everything for Cascade on Monday night against Cornersville.
Not only was he nearly flawless on the mound, but he led Cascade at the plate with a 2-for-3 night, with a home run and three RBIs in the Champs’ 10-0 thumping of the Bulldogs.
Cascade was dialed in on Bulldog starter Tanner Mullins early and knocked the Cornersville starter around for four runs in the first inning.
After Mullins was pulled in the second inning, Cascade plated three more runs off reliever Peyton Cherry.
Meanwhile. Lovvorn was dialed in and didn’t give up much at all to the Bulldogs.
“Sawyer had a great night at the plate and on the mound. He had all three pitches working tonight and got in a groove early and carried it over the plate. All-in-all, could not be more proud of Sawyer and all our guys tonight,” Cascade coach Josh Hammonds said.
Cascade was held scoreless in just one inning, the third, and closed the game with two more in the fourth and plating a 10th run that forced the 10-run rule limit in the bottom of the fifth inning.
In addition to Lovvorn’s two-hit night, Conner Melson and Walker Craig both went for a pair of hits, with Craig connecting on an extra base hit.
Cornersville simply had no answer for Lovvorn, who went the full five innings, giving up just two hits, while striking out 11.
