Kiwanis 11-12's eliminated Tuesday One night earlier on Monday, the local team ousted Lafayette 12-8. The Lebanon squad fell into the losers’ bracket with a 16-2 drubbing at the hands of Gallatin on Saturday -- then waited an extra 24 hours to hit the field due to wet weather and lightning in Trousdale County. The Lebanon Kiwanis 9-10 all-stars were bounced out of tournament play Monday following a 2-0 loss to Lafayette -- stranding a pair of base runners in the sixth inning. Kiwanis dropped their tournament opener 12-8 Saturday to Gallatin. Rotary Dixie Minors play Wednesday The Nationals won three straight in the district, a 12-6 victory over White House; a 10-0 blanking of host Lakewood and a 6-4 win over Greenbrier. Lebanon lost to Ashland City 12-2 Monday night -- forcing a return match with Greenbrier tonight (Wednesday) with a trip to next week’s state tournament in the balance. The Rotary Dixie Minors American League all-stars dropped two straight games in the District 4 tournament at Lakewood -- falling 13-6 to Greenbrier and 13-5 to Ashland City. Lebanon’s Rotary Dixie Majors (11-12) all-stars open play in the OZone state tournament 2 p.m. Friday vs. Lookout Mountain. The 16-team, double-elimination tournament will be contested at Travis Price Park in Springfield. Lebanon goes in as the District 4 tournament champion after having defeated Pleasant View 11-6 Thursday, July 5 in Adams. |
