25 May 2022

The Class 2A baseball state championship series will go to a third and deciding game after Gray Collegiate Academy defeated Andrew Jackson 6-4 in game two.

WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. — With the season on the line, Gray Collegiate Academy baseball responded with a 6-4 win Tuesday in game two of the Class 2A state championship series.

After Andrew Jackson scored two runs in the top of the first, the War Eagles added a run in the bottom of the first.

With that same 2-1 score in the fourth, GCA scored five runs in the frame. Blaine Redmond hit a solo home run, Brent Stukes delivered a three-run double and Peyton Starkey closed out the scoring with an RBI single.

Three consecutive walks helped Andrew Jackson score a pair of runs in the top of the sixth but that would be it as the War Eagles evened the series at 1-1.

Game three is set for Saturday at a site to be determined although Camden is the likely neutral site.
