Most of the time on weekend excursions you can see family right there watching Mama,daddy, bothers, sister grand ma and grand pa in some cases all there watching hoping that this game will be special in their child's lives and it will be special in theirs too.
Boy have a got a weekend excursion for the Leggett's, Woodley's and William's family this weekend. Pitt community College swept a pair of games from Potomac State of West Virginia on Friday and Saturday and by winning those two games are headed to the Junior College World Series in Grand Junction Colorado.
Pitt begins play Saturday afternoon at 4.00pm in their first game in this double elimination tournament . The tournament runs from May 29- June 5.
Jim Leggett was a member of the Rocky Mount Gryphons state Championship team in 2008 and has not tossed many inning since his senior year after having shoulder surgery right after graduation.
Zach Woodley was a member of the 2007 Northern Nash Knights that made it to the eastern finals and was one of the main stay reasons Northern made it to the Eastern finals with his pitching along with Tyler Joyner. His freshman year at Pitt Zack had arm trouble and has also pitch limited innings.
Mike Williams was the third baseman in the 07 and 09 Knights in helping them reach the eastern finals with his bat. Williams was also the third baseman for Nash County's Babe Ruth Team that played for the world title in 2005 in Quincy Massachusetts. Since moving to Pitt Williams has been converted to a pitcher.
All three of our Nash County players just possibly could be the last three playing college baseball this spring pending whether Brian Goodwin and Carolina make the NCAA tournament or not. Nash county had 21 baseball players playing college baseball some where this spring and we will give you the final stats later this week on all of them.
