Unbelievable win and much needed! 3 run double in the bottom of the 7th by Jonathan Olsberg to walk off against Chancellor, 3-2. Time to get better tomorrow and then back at it again on Saturday against William Monroe!
The Knights (13-4, 6-3) picked up a 12-0 win over King George. Max Harper stayed hot at the plate, going 3-4 with two home runs. That is 4 home runs in the last 3 games for Max. Dante Fairchild hit a home run in his 2nd straight game and Jon Rivard went 6 scoreless for the win!
Thank you seniors for your commitment! Not just to me and the coaching staff, but to the players that came before you. As a family, we won a state championship for everyone that has put on a Knight uniform. Proud of these guys. Love them and will miss them. Forever state champs!
I had the chance to talk with
@spotsybaseball
head coach Travis Payne just one week after the Knights won the school’s first state baseball title. He spoke candidly about the team’s magical season and the legacy the 2018 class left on the program.

Thankful for this Spotsy Baseball Brotherhood.
Knights pick up a 5-1 win over Manassas Park in the 1st round of regionals. Jon Rivard picked up the win on the mound and added a RBI triple at the plate. Eugene Snyder closed the game out and Max Harper, Dale Roop, and Trevor Croson each had two hits.
Make sure to come out next week for the homecoming game. Success from our sports teams has been something our community has needed. From experience, anything is possible if you believe and WE BELIEVE! Things are changing on 208.
