Fueled by six doubles and a triple, Union City High School’s baseball team defeated Verden last week 12-4 to improve to 5-2 on the fall season. The win came off the heels of a 9-1 decision over Dover.

The Tigers had only 13 hits for the two-game set, but eight of those were extra-base swings. Tyler Ross, Brayden Dennings, Lane Casey, Braydon Armstrong, Dalton Stout and Tyler Norton all recorded doubles over the two games, while Shane McNeil and Armstrong each added triples.

Over his nine years as a head coach, there have been defensive schemes which have frustrated El Reno skipper Chuck Atchison when he has tried to call specific plays against them.

So when Atchison brought in Weston McGill as his new defensive coordinator for the 2020 season, he also switched the Indians basic defensive scheme to one of those nagging alignments from his past.

Enter the 3-3 stacked defense.

When Chuck Atchison got the job as El Reno High School’s football coach following the 2016 season, he said one of the keys to his offensive playbook was having a quarterback in the system for multiple years.

Wish granted.

Atchison will begin the 2020 season with one of Oklahoma’s most dynamic dual-threat quarterbacks as Dorian Plumley returns for his third and final year at the helm of the Indians spread offense.
