Bulloch Academy Riding Hot Streak to start the baseball season

The baseball team of the Bulloch Academy has recently tried to achieve a state playoff run in baseball, although it has been reached in the state in the past three years. If you give a state championship title in football coaches and the players, it hope to make some noise in the state this year in baseball.

The Gators are currently 4-0 in the season and played a few hard teams on the way, with the recent victory being a 10-1 win against defending champion Augusta Christian Monday in Gator Alley.

Under the guidance of the first year, head coach Jason Godbee, the Gators exceeded their opponents 41: 3 and he is the best that the best will come from his team.

“I have the feeling that we definitely take steps in the right direction,” said Godbee. “There are many hard teams in the Giaa-Class 4-A throughout the state with some talents of Division 1. In order to be ready to play them, we have to make sure that we play a difficult schedule, and I have the feeling that we do it. “

On Monday, the Gators received a great performance on the hill of Sophomore Lefthaander Sam Hubbard, who only allowed two goals and a run over five innerings of work while he was nine.

“Sam is a special student in the second year,” said Godbee. “He comes in and beats his places and works well in the count. There are always some improvement areas, but he knows how to minimize the damage. We held it on a 75 -pitch -Pitch Count when we continue to throw it up for the rest of the season. He has a lot of upward trend and hopefully we can still get it from him. “

Andrew Welker came through with two hits and five RBIs in the Gators victory against Augusta Christian, while Jacon Avery added a Homer with two runs. Godbee liked what he saw from his offense, especially from her approach on the plate.

“We have a good mix of power and some boys who bring the ball into play for us,” said Godbee. “We talked to the team about putting the tone on the plate and believing. We used to talk to the fast ball early on, and we were successful. I think this can be a special group as long as we keep using the work and believe in the process. “
