Pleasant Grove dominates Seminole in game one of semi-state
FRISCO, TX (KTAL/KMSS) – On Thursday, Pleasant Grove faced Seminole in game on of the UIL 4A-DI semi-state. Hunter Rose on the mound and the defense behind him quickly set the tone for the game getting three quick outs. The Hawks had no problem getting the offense going, scoring three runs in the first inning. Buck Anderson got the scoring started, rolling one down the third baseline getting Jarret Halter home. A Walker Wright two RBI double tacked on a few more runs shortly after, and the Hawks never let up, defeating Seminole 9-0. 'Our team is very confident coming into this series,' head coach Riley Fincher said. 'We're very confident because of everything they've gone through throughout the season, but it was a great win for us to get the first one, but the job's not finished.' Defense was a big part of Thursday's success, specifically Anderson's strong arm behind the plate. 'Our catcher, he didn't get the credit he deserves, Buck Anderson,' Fincher said. 'He is a phenomenal, high school player for us, and what he does, he shuts down other teams game and he allows our pitchers to throw all pitches in any different count because they trust him a lot. So you know that's a huge asset for our team.' Pleasant Grove hopes to seal their fate to state tomorrow as they face Seminole in game two. First pitch is at 4 pm. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
