Warriors edge Colonels

STEPHENS CITY — Zach Carney was keeping the scorebook in the corner of the Sherando High School dugout Tuesday night when coach Pepper Martin came by with a message in the fifth inning.
The next time the No. 8 spot in the order came up, Carney was going to pinch hit.
“I’m not going to lie, my hand was shaking a little bit,” Carney said.
Carney steadied his nerves, then put a big dent in that scorebook.
The junior’s pinch-hit RBI single with two outs in the bottom of the sixth gave Sherando the lead, and the Warriors locked up a Region II berth with a 3-1 Northwestern District semifinal win over James Wood.
