Wood, Meyer, Darrow lead the way to EC win over ALexander.

THE STARTER.Coleman Wood started the first three and
two-third innings of Tuesday's game. He also had an RBI single.
DOUGLASVILLE-For the majority of Tuesday evening, the matchup between the East Coweta Indians and Alexander Cougars resembled the last game between the two clubs.
On March in Sharpsburg, pitching was the key as Mason Frady had 16 strikeouts and Mason Meyer had 11 as the Indians defeated the Cougars 2-1 in 12 innings.
In the rematch at Douglasville, the pitching on both sides was solid and the Indians were the victors but with a 4-1 final that took seven innings ot play.
The win improved the Indians' ove

rall record to 21-4 as they prepare to host the Campbell Spartans in a Region 2-AAAAAAA contest scheduled to begin at 5:30 while the Cougars fell to 19-4.
The Indians took a lead they never surrendered in the top of the second inning as three straight walks loaded the bases with Ethan Darrow coming home as Nate Gick hit into a fielder's choice that forced Trevor Gaddy at second base.
Ethan Darrow did a little of everything in Tuesday's 4-1 win
as he doubled, walked twice and scored twice on offense.
On defense, the second baseman had four assists and a putout.
A 1-0 lead was enough for EC starter Coleman Wood as he scattered four hits in three and two-third stint before turning the game over to Meyer who walked a batter before ending the frame with a force play in which Darrow took a single away as he flipped the ball to Devonte Brown at short.
Darrow figured into an important insurance run in the top of the sixth inning as he reached on a two out double and scored on a bad hop single past second by Wood who remained in the game by moving from the mound to first base.
The Cougars rallied in the bottom of the frame as Gavon Harman reached on a one out double off Meyer and scored on a two out single by Bryson Spencer.
However, Alexander was unable to draw any closer as EC scored twice in the top of the seventh inning as Gick singled and Brown reached on a one out walk before Emilio Morales lined a triple to right.
Meyer retired the side in order in the bottom of the seventh inning to record the save as he retired the first batter on strikes with Wood recording a pair of putouts to end the game with Darrow getting an assist on the final play. 
In his three and one-third innings of work, Meyer allowed two hits, one run, one walk and four strikeouts.
