“Most of all I feel blessed,” Faulk said. “It took a lot of hard work, dedication and determination.
“I play every game hard and get after it. I expected to do well because I believe in myself. But I didn’t see this coming.”
Faulk’s season-long stats read like something from a video game. His regular season batting average was .439. He had 76 hits, nine home runs, 18 doubles, 63 RBIs, and an on base percentage of .495.
“I have some really good teammates and some good coaches,” Faulk said. They are always helping me out and pulling for me.”
While the Govs have achieved a lot, as Sasser put it, “We’ve haven’t accomplished anything.”
“After the game a lot of guys were celebrating. They were even doing back flips. It’s good to see that enthusiasm, but we’ve still got to finish.
“Our path got a little easier with this win, but there are still other good teams left in the tournament.”
Chattahoochee Valley eliminated Southern Union on Monday with a 20-3 victory and was scheduled to play Shelton State in an elimination game later in the day for a chance to meet Wallace for the title.
