The Mustangs pounced for half a dozen two-out hits, stole five bases and received domi- nant pitching from its go-to ace. The end result was a 7-2 road victory 109 miles away from home over Cookeville in the Region 3-AAA semifinals Monday night. “We have talked all year about how we think we have some- thing special going here,” WV skipper Joe Shamblin said. “We just want to ride the cama- raderie as long as we can.

niversity of California at Berkeley Chancellor Nicholas Dirks is either a raging liberal or an incompetent Ubureaucrat who has lost control of his campus. Granted, it's not an easy job to manage a campus where decades of liberal entitlement have devolved into the rather predictable violent rage that now consumes the campus and town. After all, this is a town where legally marching down the street with a permit and an upright, properly displayed American flag draws crowds of smug, angry liberals shouting epithets. Legally carrying a sign that says you support the Republican president brings liberals armed with rocks, sticks, M-80s and Molotov cocktails burning in the street. It is true that Trump supporters marching through the streets of Berkeley is certainly considered an act of war to the alt-left liberals and does, indeed, stir that hornet's nest. Some people believe those Trump supporters deserve to be attacked for daring to stage such an outrageous act of publicly supporting the president. Others blame the actions of the leftists for their actions. Either way, following the politically liberal attacks on OUR Republicans at Berkeley, the chancellor has COUNTY Mother’s Day is now over, but one of two options: Surrender to the liberals the campus has spawned or defend free D.
