The Coffee Trojans were running out of time on Wednesday night. After taking a 6-3 lead in the first inning against the Fitzgerald Purple Hurricanes, the ‘Canes battled back with two in the third and two in the fifth while keeping the Trojans off the board. Coffee was trailing 7-6 entering the bottom of the seventh. Nothing would have made Fitzgerald happier than to cross the county line and take one from the Trojans.

Eight seems to be the magic number when the Coffee Trojans play the Camden County Wildcats. Last week in Douglas, the Trojans defeated the Wildcats by eight in the home opener. It was another eight-run margin of victory Tuesday night in St. Marys. Coffee defeated Camden 10-2 thanks to three doubles and a triple from Eli Wood, a two-RBI and three-run performance from Hunter Klesko, and a solid four-inning outing from starter Carter McMillan. Camden kept Coffee off the scoreboard in the first inning. That would be the only inning in which the Trojans wouldn’t score. Coffee plated two in…
