Baseball Hornets host tourney

By PAUL STURM, C-T Sports Editor

Looking to avoid a double-digits

losing streak, the Chillicothe High

School’s baseball Hornets played

perhaps their best game of April

Saturday. Unfortunately for the

Hornets, even

that could neither

prevent

winless streak

from continuing

nor deny

the Maryville

Spoofhounds

the championship

of the

2-day Hornets

Classic tournament.

Playing errorless defense on the

heels of a lifeless, 9-miscue showing

in their previous contest, the Hornets

got capable, 5-hit pitching from

the combination of Guy Vinson and

Troy Toedebusch and collected six

hits themselves, but couldn’t bunch

anything together offensively,while

Maryville did once.
