Alexander Central defeated Davie on Saturday in what was a common early season type high school game. On a windy and cold day, the teams combined for 7 errors and 8 walks. Both teams competed and battled through miscues in a back and forth game. Alexander took the lead for good in the 4th inning on a two out, two RBI double from Easton Rhoney. Davie answered cutting the lead to one run in the 5th, but it proved not to be enough.
