The Roanoke Rapids High School Varsity Baseball team picked up a big conference win over Northern Vance by a score of 6-4 Friday night at Doyle Field.
Cameron Medlin started the game and picked up the win for the Yellow Jackets. Bennett Liverman relieved Medlin and picked up the save.
Aaron Jackson, Cameron Medlin (2 RBI), Peyton Jackson (1 RBI), Ethan Vincent (1 RBI), and Bennett Liverman (2 RBI) each collected hits for RRHS.
Coach Mark Snead stated, "This was a real team win for us tonight. We had great pitching from Cameron and Bennett. We weren't perfect in the field, but our defense stepped up when they needed to and kept them from having any big innings. We got guys on base and got some timely hits when we needed them. I am proud of the guys tonight."
With the win the Yellow Jackets improve to 5-3 overall on the season and 4-1 in the Northern Carolina Conference. The next game for RRHS is a conference game scheduled for Monday at J.F. Webb. Game time is set for 6pm.
