Season Comes to an end

The Morgan Trojans ended the Cowboys season with a 3-1 victory in a Region 11 play-in game held at Juan Diego HS.

Grantsville struck first in the top of the 1st using singles by Andrew Nelson & Connor Turner and a key 2-out single by Kelby Landon to provide Grantsville with their lone run of the game. Morgan would answer right back in their half of the first with 4 consecutive hits to put up 2 runs which would be all they would need. They did tack on an insurance run in the 5th on a single, a Cowboy error, and a sacrifice fly to provide the final margin.

Nelson got the start for the Cowboys and pitched well, but the lack of run support spelled the end for the Cowboys.

The loss caps the careers of seniors, Andrew Nelson, Lincoln Kelley, Bridger Boman, Kelbey Fisher, & Jason Arbon.

We would like to congratulate Kelbey Fisher, he has been named Academic All-State for Class 3A baseball. It's quite an accomplishment and the first baseball player to receive the award since Ben Nelson back in 2003. He will be recognized at the state championship games on Saturday May 21 at Dixie State College.
