I guess if you are going to report the good it is only fair to report the less pleasant as well. This week was quit a struggle for the Lebanon HS baseball team. With only three games this week against the best teams we have played all year, all of our weaknesses were exposed. In two losses to Mt. Juliet and a loss to Beech, the guys managed only three runs scored for the week.
As for Jessep this week, he was minimally productive at the plate as well. Through three games he was 2/8 with 2 RBI and 1 run scored. He was able to play a significant role in all of the three LHS runs this week, but that is stretching it here. Facing Mt. Juliet's top pitchers (3 seniors who are committed to high level D-1 programs for the fall) he had some good AB's against some solid talent collecting both of his hits and a SAC fly RBI in that series. He continues to play a solid centerfield and had the opportunity to pitch one inning vs. Mt. Juliet surrendering one hit and two walks, while striking out one batter and giving up zero runs. It had been over a month since his last outing on the mound.
The team will have an opportunity this week to recover from what has become a long 1-10 skid as the regular season comes to a close in the next 8 days with 6 games on schedule.
