TURNER Mt. Blue trailed in its season opener last week but charged back before losing a close contest.
That experience and mental edge, even in a loss, was crucial in Monday’s baseball game at Leavitt Area high School when the Cougars bounced back from a tumultuous first inning to win 6-4.
“It was a rough first inning,” Mt. Blue starting pitcher Jackson Joyce said. “I got hit around a little bit, but I tried to stay composed. We had a rough first inning last game against Skowhegan, too, so we know that we have the talent to battle back.”
