Local teams eliminated at Dizzy Dean state baseball tournaments

by Scott Herpst Cat Walk Chatt

The weekend was a tough one for local 6-under, 9-under, and 11-under baseball clubs as teams from Catoosa and Walker Counties managed to win just two total games in their respective Dizzy Dean State tournaments.

In the 6-under sanctioned tournament in Gordon County, the Chickamauga Dodgers dropped their opener to the Winston All-Stars on Saturday morning. The Dodgers bounced back to beat Ringgold in their second game, but were eliminated from the tournament with a loss to the Canton Stingers.

Ringgold had lost its initial game to the Acworth Warriors. Boynton lost to the Rome Wolves and the East Cobb Cobras, while LFORA went 0-2, falling to Eastside and Midway.

At the 6-under invitational tournament in Canton, the LaFayette All-Stars ? the area?s lone representative ? was sent home with a pair of losses to Paulding County and Whitfield County.

Back up the road in Rome, LaFayette fared no better in the 9-under sanctioned tournament. The Orange-and-Black dropped their first game to Canton on Friday night before being eliminated by the Winston All-Stars on Saturday.

Ringgold also lost its tournament opener to Alpharetta before rebounding to beat Hobgood. However, Ringgold was also sent packing on Saturday night with a loss to Canton.

And in the 11-under sanctioned tournament at the South Cherokee Recreational Complex in Woodstock, the Rossville Braves quest for a state title was short-lived after back-to-back Saturday losses to the Eastside Hurricanes and the Buckhead Bombers.
