ACH Legion starts summer season
COULEE CITY — The Almira/Coulee-Hartline American Legion summer baseball team split a double header over the weekend against Gonzaga Prep AA1. The team now sits at a record of 1-2 to start the season. “I think one of the lessons is just to be patient,” said ACH Legion head coach Mike Correia. “We have a number of players, especially in the small school here, that play basketball, football and baseball so all of them are taking part in the various camps or tournaments, or league play for whatever sport, so that wears on them a little bit.” In the first game, Gonzaga Prep scored six runs in the first inning followed by three in the second. ACH Legion put up a run in the top of the fourth which was met by another two runs from Gonzaga Prep making the score 1-11 at the top of the fifth.
