STATE AAA QUARTER-FINAL
Matoaca at Western Branch
Tuesday, June 8, at 6:00 p.m. at ODU
Matoaca (16-5) finished as Central Region runner-up after losing 8-7 in eight innings to Cosby in the regional final. Western Branch (20-5) also finished second in its district, but advanced to the regional playoffs by making the Southeastern District finals.
Coach Fred Stoots' Warriors are probably the most talented team in the Central Region this season. Boasting numerous Division I prospects, Matoaca has an explosive lineup that doesn't let up from top to bottom.
A quick look at the Western Branch roster will reveal something very unusual: Coach Roland Wright's charges have only two seniors among their slim fourteen-player roster. Only one of the two is a starter
Western Branch will likely be a preseason pick to win it all NEXT season...
But what about this week?
Matoaca looked every bit as good as advertised through the middle of the year, but struggled a bit until the playoffs began...being the home team favors Western Branch....
