The JV baseball team has had a rough season. The Bucks are 3-7 overall and 3-6 in the league.
They started off their season very strong, with a win against Spring Creek, 10-8. They also picked up another easy win against Spring Creek, 8-1. Later in the season, they had a very close game against North Valleys, 7-6.
On Wednesday, April 17, the Bucks faced off against Spring Creek at home for a doubleheader. Lowry lost both games but used the losses as a way to see what they needed to improve on.
“We used these games as a way to determine what needs work, and we saw that our errors are killing us,” said Sean Herrera.
Although still important, the main goal for JV is to prepare the kids for the higher level of play.
“Our goal this season was to prepare these kids for the higher level, varsity, and I believe that we have accomplished that,” said coach Clay Sagers.
“One thing I have accomplished this season was gaining a lot of experience, and I’ll take that with me for the rest of my high school career,” said Sean Herrera.
Freshman Zach Fernandez believes that the team can do well if they fix the errors that are being made.
“We started off our season really strong, but we are in a bit of a slump right now.” I think if we improve our fielding, we’ll be okay,” said Fernandez. “Our errors are what hurt us, but if we could clean those up, I think we could be a very strong team.”
Drew enjoyed the wins against Spring Creek the most so far this season.
“My favorite memory was our overnight trip in Elko, we swept Spring Creek,” said Drew Harmon.
