FULTON, MS - The Indians jumped out to a quick 5-0 lead and never looked back as they picked up a 5-3 win to sweep Lake Land on Saturday.
Drew Wheeler (Mooreville) singled and Ethan Gill (Pontotoc) was hit by a pitch before scoring on a one-out double by Tanner Poole (Amory) and extended its lead in the second when Hayden Williams (Amory) walked and Gable Butler (Tishomingo) scored on a single by Andy Bowman (Memphis), who later scored on a single by Gill.
Lake Land pushed across a pair of runs in the third and another in the fourth, but it wasn't enough as Russ Johnson (Hatley) came in to pick up the save in the seventh.
