Andrews Beats
Tryon 1-0
In Pitchers Duel
John Bryson pitched a no-hitter
Thursday afternoon at Harmon
Field to lead Andrews past Tryon
1-0 in a pitchers’ duel. Tryon's
Barry Skipper gave up only 3
hits. The loss eliminated the
Tryon Tigers from the State
Class A playoffs. The Tigers had
won the Appalachian Conference
and Andrews was runner-up in
the Smoky Mtn. Conference.
Tryon had gone to the final four
the past two years.
Andrews scored its only run in
the top of the third.
Although the Tigers didn’t get
any hits they had a number of
scoring opportunities. Their best
opportunity came in the bottom
of the 6th when Jeff Sherer
walked, stole second and then
David Mills walked, giving the
Tigers runners on first and
second with no outs. This came to
a halt as Jeff Sherer was thrown
out at 3rd in a close play, Barry
Skipper struck out and Kevin
Pack popped up.
Bryson, the Andrews south
paw, had a good curve and
change of pace which kept the
Tigers off stride. He only struck
out three, but all the Tigers could
do was pop up and fly out.
Andrews meets Hayesville in
the District finals. Hayesville
beat Cherokee 7-6.
