Tigers Run Rule Lake Arthur
Last Tuesday, DeQuincy traveled to southern Jefferson Davis Parish to face Lake Arthur in district play. It didn’t take long for DeQuincy to get on the board as Lake Arthur walked in and gave up a couple hits that plated 5 runs in the 1st inning.
DeQuincy plated 4 more runs in the 2nd inning. The 3rd and 4th innings did not see any runs from either team until the top of the 5th when DeQuincy put the run rule dagger on Lake Arthur scoring 4 more runs to eventually claim the victory.
Diron Valentine, Nolan Schrader, and Lannin Duraso all had a hand in the pitching duties recording 4 strikeouts and only giving up 2 hits!
Carson Rainwater went 2-4 with an RBI, Schrader went 1-3 with an RBI, Andrew Dowden went 2-4 with an RBI, Turner Rodriguez went 1-3 with an RBI, Quentin Pharris went 1-1 with an RBI, and Rahley Royer went 1-4 with 3 RBIs.
It was a total team effort!

Tigers Take Down Welsh
It was safe to say that Coach Brady Carlson and his DeQuincy Tiger baseball squad had some unfinished business with the Welsh Greyhounds this past Thursday as they were looking to avenge their 4-1 loss to Welsh two weeks prior. They did just that as much was on the line for this game including a top 5 power ranking in the division 4 non-select rankings.
Turner Rodriguez pitched all 7 innings and recorded 5 strikeouts!
Carson Rainwater went 1-3, Nolan Schrader went 1-4, Rodriguez went 1-2 with 3 RBIs, Quentin Pharris went 1-3 with an RBI, and Diron Valentine went 2-3.
