DIXIE YOUTH ROUNDUP: Fort Payne eliminated
Published July 1, 2009
A late rally wasn’t enough to push Fort Payne’s 7-8-year-old baseball all-stars past Boaz Tuesday night in an elimination game at the Dixie Youth District 8 Tournament at Centre.
After falling behind early, Fort Payne managed to pull within one at 7-6 in the fifth inning, but that was as close as it would get as Boaz pulled away for a 12-6 victory.
With the win, Boaz advanced the Pool B finals, which began late Wednesday. The Pool A winner will meet the Pool B winner in a best-of-three series for the championship later this week.
Samuel Hotalen homered, while Carson Burt laced a triple and a single to lead Fort Payne. Brevan George and Levee Hall both doubled, while Andrew Adams, Jonah Hale, Zach Ridgeway, Myles Underwood and Michael Gullage all finished with two singles.
Fort Payne finished 2-2 in the tournament.

The Mountaineers scored four times in their final at-bat after Sylvania had tied the elimination game at 7-all.
The Mountaineers advanced to face unbeaten Glencoe in the pool finals late Wednesday. The Mountaineers would have to defeat Glencoe twice to advance.
Jacob Ring, Jordan Baine, Heath Phillips and Drake Casey all finished 3-for-3 for the Mountaineers. Zach Allen, Koby Tinker, Chase Henderson and Winston Alan all closed 2-for-3.
Brandon Veal and Jarred Higgins (double) both went 3-for-3 for Sylvania. Nathan King, Kris Shavers, Isaac Edwards, Christian Andrade, Sebastian Burt and Payton Stoner added two hits apiece.
