King got a pair of runs in the fourth inning and added
another two runs in the seventh to advance to Friday’s district final against
Hillsborough, and eliminate last season’s Class 7A state champions Gaither. Justice
Thompson singled to lead off the fourth and eventually scored on a wild pitch
and the Lions added the deciding run on an error later in the frame. Gaither
got one back in the sixth as Jose Cadenas singled and was driven in on an AJ
Drisdom groundout. Thompson added a two-run double in the top of the seventh
for King to put the game out of reach. Lions starting pitcher Brian Lee worked
a complete-game to earn the win allowing one run, with nine strikeouts.
