BARONS BASEBALL
It was an all or none week for the Brewton-Parker College baseball program.
The Barons swept past Thomas University and then learned what it felt like in a series with Auburn University Montgomery.
"We have played a lot of good teams," said Barons coach Chad Parker, "and the experiences are causing the kids to do a lot of growing up."
Brewton-Parker beat Thomas 12-10 and 7-1 last Tuesday and then traveled to Alabama for the AUM series. AUM won 11-1, 9-2 and 11-2.
The Barons record now stands at 13-26-1 (6-9) and is headed into the deep part of the conference schedule.
Brewton-Parker's team has but two remaining home series. The Barons face Emmanuel College on April 19 and 20, and Georgia Southwestern on April 26 and 27.
