The Willow Springs Bears’ baseball team faced off against the Cabool Bulldogs on Thursday, April 22nd. The game was supposed to be held in Willow, but because of field conditions, it was moved to Cabool.  This game was a very important conference game for both teams.

In the first inning, the Bears hit the ball very well and were able to jump out to a 2-1 lead over the Bulldogs. There were no more points added to the board until the fourth inning when the Bears would run in another.  The Bears’ pitcher Dalton Woodley continued to pitch superbly and did not allow the Bulldogs to get another run. The Bears would tack on two more scores in the sixth inning to finish the scoring for the game. The game ended and the Willow Springs Bears won with a final score of Bears-5, Bulldogs-1.

The Bears had a great day hitting and pitching and were glad to add another win to their record. The Bears’ conference record is now 3-3 and their total record now stands at 4-7.

“I am proud of them to get a big win after a disappointing loss to Grove,” commented Head Coach Chris Rodgers.
