Rockets win district

 Crittenden County beat host Lyon County 3-1 this week to win the Fifth District baseball championship.

The Rockets will play Monday in the Second Region Tournament at Henderson. The pairings will be announced Sunday afternoon.

With the score 1-all with one out in the bottom of the fifth, Crittenden’s Cody McDonald reached first on an error. He advanced to second on a ground-out and put his team up for good when Dylan Clark doubled him home. Clark scored the insurance run with Alex Home singled him in.

Crittenden's Cody McDonald, Alex Wood, Jacob McMican and Alex Porter were named to the All-District Team. Livingston Central’s Wes Lasher and John Wingham also earned All-District honors.
