Our 2015 O-Zone regular season started on Saturday, March 21. Traditionally, our Opening Day games were abbreviated scrimmages. This season, our older boys decided to put it all on the line from day one.
In the first inning of the season, Darlington Packing's Noah Skeen set the tone for the season with a mammoth blast off of Pennington & Meadows. Skeen and crew went on to win 10-2. In the second game of the day, Willie Austin's Palmetto Pride defeated Josh Jones, Luke Johnson and Saleeby & Cox 10-5.
Saleeby & Cox wouldn't stay down for long, as they defeated Pennington & Meadows 8-5 in Monday's only O-Zone matchup. On Tuesday, Zy'kee Knox, Brenden Lee and Emmanuel Pendergrass kept it close with Darlington Packing through five. In the end, the big bats of DP were too much for the Pride to withstand. The game ended 17-4 in favor of DeOnta Peterkin and the Darlington Packing.
On Wednesday, Pennington & Meadows picked up their first win of the season. Bennett Meadows, Ryan Jordan and Grayson Wint led the Real Estate Moguls over Palmetto Pride 12-4. A shorthanded Saleeby & Cox club, playing with three Minor Leaguers, played tough early, but eventually fell to Josh Irick and Darlington Packing by the score of 11-1.
Though only one week into the season, Darlington Packing has separated itself from the back, holding a 2-game lead over the other three teams.
O-Zone Standings:
Darlington Packing 3-0
Saleeby & Cox 1-2
Pennington & Meadows 1-2
