Mike Rigsbee, Kerr-Vance Academy baseball coach, is proud of his young team. With only two seniors in the lineup, the team advanced all the way to the state championship series this past week.
Unfortunately, KVA lost two games out of three to Lawrenceville Academy. “Our goal was to get there,” Rigsbee said on SportsTalk Wednesday.
KVA lost the first game 5-4, rebounded in the first game Saturday by winning 3-2 but lost the second Saturday game by the score 10-0. “It was a great season overall,” Rigsbee stated. “I knew we could make a run,” the coach continued.
Rigsbee has already started preparations for next season. Schedules are being prepared now, and he fully expects that KVA will be back in the running for a championship next year.
