Carter Cornett went 3 for 3, Ian Patton only allowed one run over four innings and Davie’s JV baseball team thumped Ballantyne Ridge 11-1 in Charlotte on March 17.
Cornett scored three times as the War Eagles won for the sixth time in seven games.
“He’s a big kid,” varsity coach Joey Anderson said. “It’s pretty impressive watching him swing the bat. On the defensive side, we’ve got to get his arm a little bit stronger. But there’s a chance he could be a gamer when he gets to the varsity level.”
Tanner Steinour went 2 for 3 and Tay Settecasi went 1-2 with three RBIs as Davie scored in all five at-bats.
The War Eagles charged to the mercy-rule margin in a six-run fifth. Steinour, Cornett and Settecasi had singles as Davie did the damage on three hits, two walks, a hit batsman and an error.
After Patton gave Davie a fine start on the mound, Taylor Shenberger slammed the door by striking out two of three batters in the bottom of the fifth.
The Wolves have been a punching bag this season, dropping to 0-6 while getting outscored 76-10.
South Meck 8, Davie 3
Davie’s five-game winning streak was stopped at South Mecklenburg on March 19. One of the few highlights was Noah Potts’ home run.
Davie got one hit from Brandon Forrest (1-2, walk), Steinour (1-3), Easton Sanders (1-3, double), Potts (1-1, walk) and Settecasi (1-2).
“They said Noah hit it to the parking lot, so he had to hit it pretty good,” Anderson said. “Noah has always had some power. He gets frustrated with himself from time to time, but I think he’s starting to have a little fun and he’s starting to see some success. Sometimes he overthinks stuff, and now he’s trying to let it go and just play.”
Davie 11, E. Forsyth 2
The War Eagles rolled with ease on March 21 in Kernersville. They staggered East Forsyth right off the bat, scoring four runs in the top of the first.
Steinour and Sanders blended singles around two walks and hit batsman, and Preston Young hit a sac fly as Davie quickly jumped into firm control.
Davie (7-4) collected 10 hits in five innings and only committed one error. By contrast, East almost had as many errors (four) as hits (five).
Steinour, Sanders and Blake French supplied 2-for-3 efforts at the plate. Forrest (1-1, two walks), Cornett (1-2), Settecasi (1-2, double) and Cayden Thalasinos (1-1, walk) added one hit each.
Sanders started on the hill and did not allow an earned run in three innings. Levi Block threw a hitless inning before Shenberger closed.
