Red Raven baseball keeps on rolling, upsetting No. 1 seed Barton 11-2, and advancing to the Region VI Semifinals.

 

Coffeyville scored in each of the first seven innings, and finished the afternon with 10 total team hits. The team also played sound defense behind starting pitcher Cross Dowd, including turning a big double play to end a Barton rally in the fifth.

 

Not normally known for home run power, the Red Ravens hit four homers on the day, including a sixth inning blast from first baseman Wyatt Pace. Ethan Gillespie, Shawn Bareno, and Nathon Cruz also left the ballpark.

 

Coffeyville advances to face the Cowley Tigers tonight in semifinal action, with Jackson Waggoner the projected starter. First pitch is at 7 p.m. CT, and Coffeyville went 1-3 against Cowley this season.
