LEWISBURG- The JV and variety squads for the EG Rockies recently wrapped up their 2025 campaigns and both teams had outstanding seasons.
The junior varsity team finished the season with a 13-3 record and went a perfect 3-0 in the postseason to capture the Top Prospects Middle School League championship. They were the no. 2 seed when tournament play began and beat Trap Hill 10-3, Western Greenbrier in the semifinals 6-5, and capped the title with a thrilling victory over Shady Spring, 5-4.
Zander Roudassakis, a fifth grader, was the league MVP as the coaches stressed how impressive that honor is as Rodoussakis played against fifth-seventh graders.
The JV team averaged over eight runs per game on the season and allowed just 3.8 to their opponents.
The coaches were Kevin Brown (manager), Tanner McCallister (assistant), and Brian Cagle.
The players consisted of Brody Brown, Elijah Flood, Jaxon Dolan-White, Dillon Jackson, Ethan Ewing, Trenton Skaggs, Tucker Sibold, Camden Bechtel, John Paul Thompson, Zander Rodoussakis, Hudson Cagle, and Grayson Knapp.
