Baseball Project What is happening on the baseball field? Due to the erosion of soil and the drainage system our dugouts were becoming unstable. Also our dugouts were very close to home plate putting our players and staff at risk during games. We put a plan into action to move our bleachers towards the concession stand and replace all the wood on them while constructing new dugouts at the end of the bleachers to open up the space giving players more room. God has put together a great group of giving people to help us accomplish this task in a timely fashion starting with Jerry Fodale’s men knocking down dugouts, moving bleachers, fixing up the concession stand and so much more. Bob and Georgiana Violet owners of a commercial landscaping business put their crew to work on removing the old wood and putting on the new wood to complete the stands as well as putting on some finishing touches on the field dirt and sod to get it game ready. Chad Parker with Bulldog Waste, Michael Harrelson of Harrelson Materials Management and Louisiana Environmental for donating dumpsters. The booster club President Todd and Kristy Nichols went to work with a group of parents freshening up our locker room painting lockers, walls, bathrooms, the shower floors and new carpet for the locker room. People behind the seen making this happen are John Kimmer who had the presentation drawn up for the school board and point man for getting wood donated from Home Depot for the bleachers. John has spent countless hours on putting this project together. Larry Crane has obtain donated cinder for the dugouts and walls, helped get lights put up in our batting cage, as well as organizing and seeing things to the finish. Arnie Castellano has put many hours into the planning and strategy of completing this project. Last but not least those that want to remain nameless who have donated money so that our baseball team could have a great place to play. We don’t want to forget those faithful men that we always count on Scott Jones and Dick Monette who work tirelessly keeping things operating on the baseball field. Evangel Baseball wants to say Thank You for all your help in doing things first class. May God bless your generosity!

EAGLES WIN BIG AT LAKESIDE

In front of a trmendous crowd the Evangel Eagles baseball team came ready to play. The eagles scored two in the first and never looked backed beating a scrappy Lakeside club  15-5. Tyler Moody went the distance pitching six innings giving up five runs on six hits. Moody runs his record to 8-1 on the year. '"Tyler gave us exactly what we needed tonight," said Coach Hooten. "He is a strike thrower and he made the Lakeside hitters swing the bat allowing only 3 walks and giving the rest of our pitchers a night off, that sets us up good for next Tuesday's game."

The offense was clicking too as the Eagles put up 15 runs on 15 hits led once again by freshman Connor Castellano's 4-4 and 2 RBI. Seth Bamburg was back in action after being off for three weeks due to a hamstring injury was 2-3 with 2 doubles. Others contributing mightily to the Eagles victory were Bronson Gillam 2-2 with 2 RBI, Brandon Spencer 2-4 with 2 doubles and 2 RBI, and David Duron 2-3 with 1 double and 2 RBI. "We did everything well tonight from pitching to hitting to base running, it was a complete game for us," said Coach Hulett. "It was great to have Bamburg back in the line up and then to swing the bat as well as he did after being off for so was a big lift to our club. Seth is a big part of our team chemistry. We have a great line-up 1-9 are discipline hitters and when your 7,8,9 hitters are Johnson, Spencer, and Duron you create a problem for the opposing pitcher because there is no breaks, those guys could easily be hitting 1,2,3."

The Eagles record is 22-12-1 and the next game will be at the state semi-finals against U-High at the University of Louisianna Monroe Tuesday. Game time TBA.

Harvill and Back Lead Eagles to Regional Playoff Victory

Evangel beat a tough second round opponent Holy Savior Menard 7-1 to advance to the quarter finals. Jeff Harvill threw five innings holding a strong hitting club to just three hits and one run on five strikeouts. Harvill pitched out of a jam in the first by striking out the three hole hitter and then getting the next batter to pop up for the third out, stranding the runner at third base. "Jeff had good stuff tonight mixing in his breaking ball and keeping hitters off balance," commented coach Hoooten. Harvill improved his record to 3-2. Chris Back was the offensive star going 2-3 with a double and three RBI. "Chris has been a spark plug for us lately at the bottom of the line up. He had two-two out hits as well as his aggressive base running and defense in centerfield were keys to our success tonight. He has picked up the slack with Bamburg and Johnson slowed by leg injuries" said coach Hulett. Ray Johnson added two hits and Connor Castellano hit a solo homerun in the bottom of the fifth.The Eagles over all record improves to 21-12-1.

 

The Eagles will take on district rivals Lakeside. The game will be played Friday May 2nd at Lakeside start time is 6:00 pm. All ticket prices will be $6.00 come support the Eagles.
