Baseball programs have been loosening up through the early part of the season and Elmore County High went from 1-4 to 4-4 on the season with three straight program wins to break back even on the young season.
There’s plenty of baseball left as Stanhope Elmore remains the top team in the county and still flawless entering the week.
