It was a good stretch for Southwestern Randolph’s baseball team, which won three times last week.
Carson Coltrane rapped six hits and drove in six runs in visiting Southwestern Randolph’s 23-11 topping of Jordan-Matthews. Brady Armfield added four hits, including two triples and a double.
In the Four Rivers Conference rematch, Coltrane and Elijah Sykes each drove in three runs and Logan Weidman and Armfield both scored three runs in the Cougars’ 16-7 home victory.
Southwestern Randolph held off host Asheboro by 8-6 as Coltrane knocked in two runs and scored twice to win for the second time this season against the Blue Comets.
Daniel Jaimes and Reid Sudduth both had two runs batted in for Asheboro.
** Jake Hunter struck out 13 Eastern Randolph batters in a two-hitter as the Eagles won 6-1 in the road game. Hunter also had three hits and Jaxon Mabe drove in three runs.
But the Four Rivers Conference rematch involved Eastern Randolph’s eight-run top of the seventh inning for a 13-9 road victory Friday as Maddox Dunn, who was the winning pitcher in relief, drove in four runs and Cade McCallum scored three times.
UCA’s Ty McAuley had three hits and scored two runs.
** Eastern Randolph dropped a 14-11 decision at Roxboro Person even though Bryson Markley scored three runs and Levi Stalker ripped a three-run double.
** Gavin Allen threw a six-hitter in Asheboro’s 7-0 home victory against Southeast Guilford in the Triad Area Athletic Conference on Friday. Sam Gore and Reid Sudduth both drove in two runs.
That reversed Asheboro’s 4-3 road loss to Southeast Guilford from earlier in the week, when Jaimes homered.
** Trinity’s Lincoln Coble struck out eight batters in five innings in the Bulldogs’ 15-2 road triumph against Providence Grove in the Central Carolina 3-A Conference. Indiana Hill, Peyton Williams and Walker Parrish all scored two runs.
In the rematch, Williams struck out 12 batters in six innings and Parrish had three hits in the Bulldogs’ 5-0 home success. Grayson Fauber worked an inning of relief to complete the three-hitter.
In between the conference games, Trinity lost 9-1 to visiting Eden Morehead.
** Wesleyan Christian popped visiting Providence Grove 11-1.
** Wheatmore fell 4-3 at East Davidson despite Lukas Usterbowski scoring two runs. The Warriors also lost 7-5 at Southern Guilford.
** Kyle Dillow drilled a two-run home run and winning pitcher Jake Riddle scored three runs in Randleman’s 13-0 home rout of Montgomery Central in the Piedmont Athletic Conference.
Later in the week, Randleman mashed Montgomery Central 16-5 on the road as Lincoln Lawson drove in four runs and John Kirkpatrick was the winning pitcher.
In between the matchups with Montgomery Central, Randleman’s string of seven consecutive shutouts ended, but the host Tigers still won by beating visiting Southern Alamance 12-6 courtesy of pitching from Tate Andrews and Dillow. Gavin Vanover scored three runs and Riddle, Ashton Poe, Carter Heath and Jackson Hill all knocked in two runs.
