Moravia Hardball Upsets Georgetown In 11 Inning Win
Moravia’s hardball nine defeated Georgetown 16 to 15 in an 11 inning home game. Dayton Dotson starred with a homer, a triple and a single, while Wilbur Smith also connected for a homer. The Moravians, despite the win, lost three baseballs and a bat during the long afternoon. They next played Blakesboro, losing 4 to 1, as Gerald Hunter allowed little speed yet effective spin. Moravia aims to rebound in the return at Alakesburg.
