Cubs celebrate Senior Night with 2nd place win

The Olney Cubs hosted district rivals the Seymour Panthers for the second game of a double header, with second place in District on the line.

To add to the pressure, it was also Cub Senior Night and what student athlete doesn’t want to have a win on Senior Night?

Parents and family escorted their Senior Cub player to the mound for some recognition and photos then the game began with a fiery, explosive start by Cubs pitcher Jordan Jacoba -- strikes out two and an infield fly catch quickly finished the Panthers’ inning.

The Cubs came to bat with a three-run homer by Mr. Jacoba, Cameron McCormack and Cye Dixon being the other two Cubs with runs on Jacoba’s home run.

The Cubs went on to beat the Panthers, 16-10, to capture second place in District.

Way to go, Cubs! Fight on!
