Kamden Kyles had a sacrifice RBI in the 2nd inning as well.
This concludes the 2024 Mustangs baseball season. The boys improved so much the last few weeks and it shows how hard they have been working at practice each day. I am so proud of the 8th grade group and the leadership they showed throughout the season. I am also excited for the future of our baseball team with the 7th graders that played this year. It is always tough when a season comes to an end, but the excitement and growth from the boys over these past few weeks was awesome to see. I want to personally say thank you to all the parents and supporters for coming out and cheering on our boys. Our Mustang family is truly something special to be a part of. Thank you all, and GO MUSTANGS!!
