This game was definitely a pitchers battle. Austin Gardner made his varsity pitching debut for the Kenwood. He pitched a complete game and also had the only hit of the day for the Knights.

The play of the game was an “ESPN” catch by right fielder Devonte Maffett. A ball was hit 25-30 feet over his head and to his left. He got a good jump on the ball and used his blazing speed to track it down and get the out. 

In the Junior Varsity game the Knights improved their record to 2-1 by beating Montgomery Central 14-2. Michael Merriweather and Alex Brack combine to pitch a great game. Several of the JV Knight players had base hits. DeAndre Allen placed a fantastic bunt that scored the go ahead run.
