close to the net. Marshall
lined players up on the
goal line, but Vargus put it
in the upper right portion
of the net to give the Tigers
a 1-0 lead.
Vargus scored again less
than a minute later on a
header while falling on his
chest off of a cross from
Gabriel Moyao. The Tigers
scored again when Kevin
Perez stole the ball from a
defender and snuck it by
the goalkeeper to give the
Tigers a 3-0 lead.
The first half ended with
the Tigers up 3-0, and the
scoring only continued
in the second half. At the
38:52 mark of the second
half, the Marshall goalie
misplayed the ball and the
Tigers had an easy walk-in
goal to make the score 4-0.
Vargus then completed
the hat-trick, as the goalie
got a piece of the ball to
slow the momentum, but
the ball slowly rolled into
the net to give the Tigers
a 5-0 lead. Vargus then
contributed on the Tigers’
next goal, as he got past
the Marshall defense and
drew the goalie close to
him before sliding the ball
to Perez who tapped it in
for his second goal of the
game.
The Tigers then scored
again with just over a
minute left in the game to
make the score 7-0. Mount
Pleasant controlled the
ball for the majority of the
game, most of it spent in
the Mavericks’ half of the
field.
The district-leading
Tigers are now 11-1-1 (5-
0), and travel to Greenville
on Friday looking for
another win. The Tigers
return to Sam Parker Field
on Feb. 17 to take on Pine
Tree.

Mount Pleasant holds first action of 2015 baseball season
By JORDAN DAVIS

As February begins,
sports fans know that
one sport is coming to
an end, and another is
beginning to take place.
The attention starts to
stray away from the
sneakers on the court, and
more towards the cleats
on the diamond. But for
the Mount Pleasant men’s
baseball team, there was
more attention being
paid to the new faces
that were on the field
warming up for the 2015
Black and Gold scrimmage
Tuesday night. In the end,
the Black team reigned
supreme, and defeated the
Gold team 7-1.
The game didn’t take
long to get action, as the
first pitch resulted in a
single for the Black team.
Unforced errors was the
story for the Gold team
early on, as the Black
team scored off of three
unforced throwing errors
to start the game to 3-0.
The Black team started
the game firing on all
cylinders, both offensively
and defensively. The Black
team scored two more
runs in the second to
bring the score to 5-0.
The Gold team came
with an answer however
in the third inning coming
off of a triple to get them
on the board 5-1. The
game then turned into a
defensive battle, as both
teams struggled to get the
ball past infield, but in the
end, the Gold team made
too many mistakes and
too many throwing errors,
which gave the Black team
two more runs in the fifth
to put the game away.
One thing Tiger fans
can look forward to this
season is offense. Solid
hitting will be a strength
for the Tigers, as three hits
almost cleared the warning
track for homers. Along
with hitting, stealing bases
will become a strong asset
to the team as well, as
they stole bases as often as
they could throughout the
scrimmage.
The defense is still a
work in progress, as there
were some mental errors
made in the infield, but
head coach Joel Windham
said that chemistry will
strengthen as the season
goes on, and those early
mistakes will work
themselves out.Tuesday
night,fans saw flashes of
diving catches, and eye
catching double-plays
made by both teams.
Overall, the Tigers hope
to have a solid season.
With a mix of returning
players and newcomers,
the Tigers look to make
a huge run in district
play as well as reach the
postseason. They will use
a strong lineup of hitting
along with speed in order
to make that run, a run
fans are looking forward
to being a part of.
