The Yellow Jackets (3-0) used a 3-for-3 effort by Sydney Bowen to get past the Green Dragons.
Bowen also drove in three runs, and scored three times.
John Davis went 2-for-3 with two runs scored while Landon Walker had two hits, and one run scored. Hayden Kleinert had a hit, an RBI, and three runs scored while Henry Bowling collected two hits. Drew Damron had a hit, an RBI, and a run scored while Casey Kysar had a hit, and an RBI. Isaiah Sizemore finished with a hit.
“It was a good win for us,” Hopkins said. “I am proud of our crew and the fight they showed. We played a little sloppy, I thought, and made some errors that we haven’t made in the last couple of games but the boys didn’t lay down.
“I thought we struggled at the plate a little but we are only a few games in,” he added. “I expect it to all come together as we get some more games under our belt.”
