William Monroe baseball’s Hunter Powell blasted a pair of three-run home runs for the Dragons Thursday, helping spark Monroe past Madison County 14-3.
Powell’s homers came in the first and second, with the second putting Monroe up 8-0. Reilly Owen and Derek Ryan also hit home runs, with Ryan knocking in three runs on the day. Braydon Collier, Alex Kinsey and Jonathan Sexton each also knocked in runs.
Kinsey scored two runs as part of a 4-for-4 night. Owen and Powell both went 2-for-3.
Brice Slaughter got the win on the mound, throwing four innings while allowing just three hits and striking out two.
Madison’s Aaron Henshaw went 3-for-3 with three RBI while scoring once.
The Dragons will try and keep things going Friday against Warren County at home while Madison will try and bounce back against Rapphannock at home.
