As soon as they captured the 13th Region All \u2018A\u2019 Classic championship Saturday evening, they hurried back to their homes to pack for their trip the following day to Florida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After a few hours of rest, they were back on the Diamond Monday, playing two games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first game they dropped a 7-6 decision to Fairdale, and the second game saw the Yellow Jackets (7-4) put up a fight before dropping a 13-9 decision to Bracken County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTough competition down here,\u201d Hopkins said. \u201cWe\u2019ve played some good baseball against some very good teams. Proud of our kids and the adversity they fought through today. We came down here to get better and I think we have. Even though we\u2019ve dropped a couple close game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI feel we are on the right track,\u201d he added. \u201cWe were just told we were the best hitting team that a team has played, so that\u2019s a positive. I love my team, and I am extremely proud of them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Williamsburg held a 5-4 advantage e netting the fifth inning before Fairdale rallied to get the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Yellow Jackets trailed Bracken County, 9-5, before rallying to score three runs in the bottom of the fourth to cut their deficit to 9-8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
