No. 9 state-ranked Etowah Eagles<br />

0 BB), the Eagles topped visiting<br />

South Cobb, 5-2, on April 21, then<br />

handled <strong>Cherokee</strong>, 10-0, on Friday<br />

3-for-4 with two stolen bases, and<br />

recorded an RBI each.<br />

Caffee again came up big on Friday,<br />

did Zach Waters with a two-run<br />

homer. Danny Schmit picked up<br />

the win on the mound, working<br />

2.1 innings of scoreless relief.<br />

Denying East Paulding of a<br />

chance to move into a three-way<br />

tie for first in the region, Patrick<br />

Merkling allowed one hit and<br />

struck out nine in five innings for<br />

the win, while Waters hit another<br />

two-run blast and Harris went<br />

2-for-3 with two doubles and<br />

two runs. Birch threw a perfect<br />

seventh, fanning two, for the save.<br />
