Lions Sweep: Reid State Dominates Faulkner JV with Offensive Explosion
Reid State Community College put on a clinic at Harrison Field in Montgomery on Tuesday, February 3, sweeping their doubleheader against the Faulkner University JV squad. The Lions outscored the Eagles by a staggering 24-2 margin across both contests, fueled by elite plate discipline and an incredibly aggressive ground game.
Game 1: No-Hit Stuff and Speed
The Lions opened the day with a 10-1 victory. Blake Sewell and Austin Gross combined for a dominant performance on the mound, holding Faulkner hitless through five innings while racking up 11 strikeouts.
Offensively, the Lions used a 5-run first inning to bury the Eagles early. Braylon Peters, Jomarrion Flowers, and Zach Simmons each recorded two hits, while the team terrorized the base paths with 16 stolen bases.
Game 2: Power and Patience
The nightcap was even more lopsided, as Reid State cruised to a 14-1 win. While the bats remained hot, the Lions' patience was the story of the game, drawing 10 walks. Key highlights included:
-
The Pitching: Lefty Carson McCutchin earned the win, striking out five of the six batters he faced in two perfect innings.
-
The Big Bats: Brady Quinn cleared the bases with a three-run triple in the fifth, while Garrett West also drove in three runs.
-
The Speed: For the second game in a row, the Lions were relentless, swiping another 15 bases to bring their daily total to 31.
Up Next: The Lions look to carry this momentum on the road as they head to face the MCC Eagles this Friday.
