Last week was about firsts for the Warren County Middle School baseball team and coach David Martin. The Pioneers and coach Martin picked up their first win of the season on Thursday by defeating Coffee County 4-3, then followed it up with their first winning streak Friday when they beat White County 3-2.Both games followed a similar story line, as Merek McColloch came through with big doubles and Collin Smedley got the outs his team needed in the clutch.Thursday’s game nearly wasn’t even played, but WCMS got an assist from Warren County High School. The Pioneers and Coffee County battled at Patrick Ramsey Field, giving the middle school players their first taste of playing on the high school field.McColloch looked very comfortable on the mound, as he pitched 6 1/3 innings and struck out four batters while allowing three runs.Even with McColloch holding his own, the Pioneers still found themselves down 2-0 entering the fifth inning.
