The Eagles took the
early lead as they put
three runs on the board
in the bottom of the first
inning. Treutlen scored
one run in the top of the
second to close the lead
to 3-1, but a big bottom
half of the inning for the
Eagles put them well in
front.
MCHS scored four
runs in the second inning
with runs coming in on
errors and a 2-RBI dou

That put MCHS on top
7-1. Treutlen bounced
back, though, in the top
of the third inning with
three runs to close the
lead to 7-4.
The Vikings added a
run in the fifth to make it
7-5, but MCHS answered
in the bottom of the
frame with a run. Treutlen
scored one more time in
the top of the fifth inning,
but MCHS held on to get
the win, 8-6.

Then in the second
inning MCHS blew the
game open with the help
of the Tigers. MCHS put
13 runs on the board to
go ahead 14-2. Each team

The Vidalia Heritage
Academy Eagles football
team hosted the World of
Knowledge Academy
Owls out of Holiday, FL,
on Saturday of last week
and rolled to a big win.
The game had a big
weather delay near half
time, but that didn't stop
the Eagles from running
away with the win.
Heritage got the ball
rolling as Josiah Smith
connected with JT Co
field on the first play of
the game for a long touch
down pass. They added
the two-point conversion
to take an 8-0 lead. They
put a second touchdown
on the board on a short
run by Ethan Sikes to go
ahead 16-0 on the Owls.
The Eagles scored a
third touchdown on a 38-
yard punt return for a
touchdown by James
Hutcheson. Sikes went in
for the conversion to make
the score 24-0 just before
the end of the first quar
ter.
The Owls did get in
for a touchdown early in
the second quarter after
setting up the touchdown
with long run and a cou
ple of VHA penalties.
That made the score 24-6.
Smith had a couple of
good runs on the next
possession of the Eagles,
moving the ball all the
way to the 14-yard line.
VHA got to the 5-yard
line before Hutcheson
went in for the touch
down. With 7:39 left in
the half, the score was 32-
6.
Shortly after that a
storm began to move
through the area and the
game went into a delay.
After the weather de
lay, the Eagles got back to
work and added two more
touchdowns. That put
them on top 48-6. The
Eagles defense didn't al
low the Owls to get into
the end zone again as
VHA won the game 48-6.
This week Heritage
will host Twiggs Academy
at 7:30 p.m. on Charles
Wood Field.
