PEARL – After getting blanked in Game 1 against Presbyterian Christian, Booneville didn’t fare much better in Game 2. The Bobcats rolled past Booneville 8-2 to claim the MHSAA Class 3A state title on Friday and end Booneville’s magical playoff run. Presbyterian Christian won an MAIS state title last year, and now the Bobcats have an MHSAA state championship.
“I’m just really, really proud of our guys, really proud of them,” Booneville head coach Jake Scott said. “(PCS is) a great team – two great pitchers, bringing in another guy that’s a really good pitcher. But our guys had to get over a lot of humps this year, beating certain teams, getting to Jackson, winning on the road.
Our four seniors are the reason for that. ” Booneville (20-15) avoided another shutout in Game 2, scoring two runs in the bottom of the first to tie the game 2-2. But it was all downhill from there for Booneville.
