Griffin Meeker of CHS baseball
The Coffee County CHS baseball team welcomed Marshall County to Powers Field on Thursday.

Coffee County rallied to score 3 runs and loaded the bases with the top of the order up. A red Raider strikeout ended the rally and the game.
Griffin Meeker led the Raiders in hitting as he had 3 singles to be named the Crazy Daisies player of the game. Hayden Skipper and Brady Nugent each added a pair of singles. Harley Hinshaw drove in 2 runs in the 7th with a 2 out single.
