The Tigers needed a late delivery against CCHS on Mar. 25, and Justin Morris made sure that Babe Ruth Field was within Cedar Bluff’s coverage area.

With the Tigers (9-3, 2-0) trailing 6-5 in the top of the seventh, Morris came through with a no-out grand slam that eventually held up for a 9-8 Cedar Bluff victory.

It was Cedar Bluff’s sixth straight win of the season.

The Warriors notched two runs in the bottom of the inning, but the hosts’ rally came up short when Adam Wickham came through with a two-out strikeout with a baserunner on second.

“This was an exciting win, and Justin’s hit was definitely the biggest of the game,” said Cedar Bluff head coach Steve Smith. “[CCHS] wound up getting a few runs in the last inning, so we needed every one of our runs tonight.”

Wickham (2-1) pitched the final three innings for the win, allowing no earned runs while fanning six and walking one.

Morris went 3-for-4 with five RBI, while Bryan Hawk went 2-for-4 and Matt Wilson went 2-for-5.

Sparked by Nick Cobia’s no-hitter, Cedar Bluff shut out Collinsville 10-0 in five innings in a 1A, Area 10 game on Mar. 24.

Cobia fanned eight and walked one while helping his cause with two hits.

Wickham paced the Tigers (8-3, 2-0) with a two-run home run and a single, while Wilson and Lance McCullough each contributed two hits
