OPELIKA —
The Southern Christian Patriots opened their inaugural junior varsity baseball season with games against Ezekiel, Southern Prep, Springwood and Evangel, to name but a few. The team has an over .500 win/loss percentage, admirable for a startup group.
The Patriots are led by twins, Jagger and Jedd Scott, Jayden McKee and J.D. Dallas, all of whom are hitting over .400.
Pitcher Cooper Nimmo leads the staff in earned run average and wins.
Southern Christian is a group of home-school players who come together to compete in 8-man football, basketball and baseball. Girls’ sports include volleyball, basketball and softball. Players from schools who have no such sports teams are welcome to try out for Southern Christian.
