Simpson baseball opened season play at Smith Wills Stadium in Jackson, Ms against Jackson Preparatory School.
The Cougars, a division 3A, took on the Patriots who are a 4A division school.
Simpson might have come up short handed falling 3-2, but from the looks of the pitching and team as whole this squad should have a promising year under the leadership of Coach Evans.
Cougars would not let the fact of Prep having 5 committee players to play collegiate ball intimidate them.
Matthew Harris started as Pitcher striking out 3 players. Noah Magee came in top of the 4th inning and had a good night. Magee struck out 5 players in two inning.
#10 Tristan Cowan had 2 hits for the Cougars one being a double. #9 Cullen Shows got a hit along with #6 Scott Johnson.
