keeping track

Mississippi College’s dormant offense awoke on Tuesday, putting up 15 hits and a season-high 16 runs in a wild win over Millsaps. The Choctaws’ 16-10 victory squared the Maloney Trophy Series; all three schools (Belhaven included) are now 1-1. Every MC starter had at least one hit and six had two. Spencer Brunson belted his second homer of the year, and Jeremy Simmons drove in three runs. … Hinds Community College’s Beau Wallace, a sophomore from Vicksburg, had a six-hit day on Monday as the Eagles swept a pair of games from Panola (Texas) CC in Ruston, La. The 8-2 Eagles will play Northeast, which swept second-ranked Jones County last weekend, on Thursday. … The Mid-Mississippi Baseball Classic, featuring 18 top high school teams from the Magnolia State and Alabama, is slated to begin Thursday and run through Saturday. Five sites in the Jackson metro area are being used: Northwest Rankin, Brandon, Pearl, Madison Central and Jackson Academy. In addition to those schools, Terry, Clinton, Warren Central, Vicksburg, Brookhaven, Pascagoula and North Pike are participating. A full schedule can be found at www.northwestrankinbaseball.com.
