GRANVILLE — When Steve Sabins announced West Virginia baseball's pitching rotation for the week, it looked a little different. Maxx Yehl is starting Friday and Chansen Cole was a go for Saturday; that looks normal. But on a short week, with Thursday being the first game, Sabins went with ...

GRANVILLE – That thud you may have heard coming out of Kendrick Family Ballpark on Friday night was WVU’s chances of winning a Big 12 championship hitting a brick wall. The pinging noise you heard was the reason why. TCU’s Preston Gamster, Kyuss Gargett and Noah Franco all hit solo home runs – a total of 1,191 feet of them – and Horned Frogs starter Lance Davis hurled a complete-game shutout in a 4-0 victory. The loss – just the second time the ninth-ranked Mountaineers (36-13, 20-9 Big 12) have been held scoreless this season – put a severe clamp on WVU’s chances ...

If not for a four-pitch walk to Big Red Noah Holland, the Red Dragon Samms would've had a perfect ...
THE PLAINS, Ohio — With Thursday’s 5-3 win over Athens in the Division III district tournament, Marietta softball is back on the map in Southeast Ohio. “We put everybody on notice in our district,” said MHS head coach Jon Pollard. Abby Miller went the distance in the pitcher’s circle and was 2 for 4 with three runs-batted-in at the plate to lead the way for the Tigers. Marietta advanced to the district semifinals and will take on either Sheridan or Washington Court House at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Logan. After starting the season 2-5, the Tigers have won 15 of their last 21 ...
