Darren McWhorter\u2019s squad received stellar pitching efforts from Dylan Hurley and seventh grader Cooper Parman, who combined to limit Rockcastle County to only three hits during North Laurel\u2019s 2-1 win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hurley picked up the win, tossing four innings while allowing only two hits and one earned run. He finished with six strikeouts. Parman impressed during his first varsity appearance on the mound, pitching three scoreless innings while allowing only one hit and earning the save. He also had five strikeouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe played well tonight in all facets of the game,\u201d McWhorter said. \u201cDefensively, offensively and pitching, we did well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDylan Hurley and Cooper Parman threw lights out tonight and we hit the ball well, just didn’t score runs or couldn’t get hit with runners in scoring position,\u201d he added. \u201cGreat win for the Jags tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Parkan also done damage at the plate, leading the way with a 4-for-4 effort while scoring once. Carter Kelley had three hits, and drove in a run while Cooper Elza finished with two hits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
