The James Clemens baseball team plays area-leader Decatur in a big series that will decide who makes the playoffs. The Jets are coming off a sweep of Florence but lost a series to Austin. Decatur has defeated Florence and Austin in area play. James Clemens plays at Decatur Friday night and hosts Saturday starting at 1 pm.
The Bob Jones baseball team carries a perfect mark in area play into a weekend series with Buckhorn. Buckhorn lost to Sparkman in area play. Buckhorn hosts Friday night and Bob Jones hosts Saturday with a special start time of 11 A.M. due to the Bob Jones prom on Saturday night.
