The Bowie Jackrabbit baseball team traveled to their first tournament in Graham last week.
The Jackrabbits did not have everyone from basketball, but still did well enough go 2-2 during the two days.
The first day saw Bowie start off well beating Clyde 3-0 in a low-scoring full game. Troy Kesey, Cy Egenbacher and Edgar Regaldo each drove in one run each. On the mound Edmond DeLeon pitched a complete game shut out allowing only three hits while striking out nine batters and walking no one.
The second game of the day was a 6-2 win against Hawley that also went seven innings. Kesey led the team with two RBIs and two doubles with his bat. Kynan DeMoss pitched six innings and struck out six while allowing one earned run. Egenbacher got the save pitching the final inning.
Saturday was a different story. Bowie lost to Breckenridge in a high scoring game 14-9. DeMoss led the team with two RBIs while Carson Sanders had three hits and scored three runs.
The final game of the tournament was a close 5-4 loss against tournament host Graham. Colby Nichols had two hits and one RBI to lead the team while Sanders on the mound struck out seven batters while allowing one earned run in 6.2 innings.
