⚾️ Hanover Post 764 Falls to Coshocton American Legion, 15-5 ⚾️

The final score wasn't what we wanted, but there were still plenty of positives to build on Thursday night at Licking Valley High School.

Hanover jumped out early when Carter Waites ripped a 2-run double in the first inning, giving Post 764 a quick 2-0 lead. Despite collecting 7 hits to Coshocton's 6, a tough second inning and several costly mistakes proved too much to overcome.

Bentley Minton led the offense, going 3-for-3 at the plate, while Carter Waites drove in 3 runs from the heart of the lineup. The team also showed patience at the plate, drawing 8 walks, with Darek Jones and Miles Miller collecting two walks apiece.

Defensively, Hanover turned a double play and continued to battle until the final out.

This game was a reminder that baseball isn't always about who gets the most hits—it's about limiting mistakes and taking advantage of opportunities. We'll learn from it, clean up the little things, and get back to work.

Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the boys tonight.
