Conference Record
Stands At 7 And 3
Two Games With
Edenton Listed
For This Week
—*—
Game There Tonight and
Here Thursday Night
Appears Likely .
The Wiiliamston High School
Green Wave baseball team wound (
up its 1950 Albemarle Conference
season with a 17 to 4 victory over j
Plymouth last Friday afternoon.
This gave the local boys a record •
of 7 victories and 3 losses in 10
conference games and leaves them
with just two exhibition games on :
schedule.
The Green Wave travels to
Edenton today for a game with j
the Aces there, the contest likely
to be played under the lights un
less there is a last minute change.
On Thursday night Edenton comes
here for a return game and Coach
Stuart Maynard wants to play it
at night also if a conflict with the
softball league can be straighten
ed out in time. This will give a
lot of fans who have not been able
to leave their work to see the
team in action this year a chance
to see the Green Wave on the
field.
In the games with Edenton, no
conference rules will hold and a
few boys who missed some recent
games wlil be able to get into the
play again.
As it stands now Hertford is the
winner of the baseball champion- I
ship in the conference with the
Green Wave in second place.
Taking a two run lead in the
second inning at Plymouth, the
Green Wave saw this cancelled by
a Plymouth rally in the third and
then fell behind 3-2 as the Pan
thers got a third run in the fifth.
But the Wiiliamston boys found
tire range in the 8th and 9th in
nings to win going away. In those
two innings they scored 15 runs
on lilts, errors and walks.
Raymond Davis pitched all the
way for Wiiliamston, allowing but
nine hits while Browning was the
hurler for the Panthers. He had
the game pretty well under con
trol until the 8th when the roof
fell in on him. He could get the
ball over the plate only with dif
ficulty und when he did the Green
Wave batters really pasted it.
Jack Edwards and Bobby Car
ter were the big guns for the local
high schoolers us they got three
hits and three runs each out of
four times at bat apiece. Edwards
circle the bases on a hit in the
second inning when the fielder j
could not locate the ball and get
it in home. He sent Carter in
ahead of him.
No Plymouth batter got more
than two hits off Davis and he
fanned six Panthers, three of
them in a row
ning.
