AREA BASEBALL ACTION: Mustangs take two from E-B



BLOOMFIELD — The Davis County baseball team received solid pitching performances from Colton Hopwood and Justin Garman as the Mustangs took a pair of South Central Conference games from Eddyville-Blakesburg on Monday.

Davis County downed the Rockets 2-0 in the first game and took a 10-3 win in the nightcap.

“I just thought our kids played hard,” said Mustang coach Todd White. “I was real happy with the way Colton and Justin pitched. I hope we continue to get better.”

Hopwood picked up a complete game shutout in game one, scattering four E-B hits and fanning six batters without allowing a walk. Trevor Fowler and Preston Roberts each had an RBI for the Mustangs in the two-run fifth inning.

Garman fanned 12 E-B batters in the nightcap, and all three of the runs charged to Garman were unearned. Fowler had a double and three RBI for the Mustangs in the second game, while Garman helped himself out with a triple, an RBI and a run scored.

The Mustangs return to action today, when Davis County (16-8, 9-6) will host Chariton in a South Central Conference contest.
