The Tigers pulled out a 5-3 road win over Fannin County High School as the teams split a double-header March 22 to wrap up this season’s three-game series. The Rebels won the first two games of the week to take the series by a final tally of 2-1. Dawson County’s Mauricio Hernandez faced 28 batters in his season debut on the mound as posted three strikeouts to hold the Rebels to three runs over six innings. Andrew Burt, also in his pitching debut, closed out the victory with a solid inning of relief. “Mauricio did a great job of pitching this weekend. We really needed a quality start from someone, and he came through,” Head Coach Dwayne Sapp said. “Andrew Burt closed out the game. Both pitchers made their first appearance of the year and made them count.” Offensively, the Tigers spread the ball around the field with multiple players recording a hit, but the big inning came in the fourth when Dawson County capitalized on a string of walks, pitching errors and hits to put four runs on the board and take the lead late in the game.
