Post 444 went through the season with a 20-9 record and 9-5 in District 10 games. What helps Post 444 is late-season momentum, with 14 wins in the last 16 games, prior to the District 10 Tournament, which were to start on July 10. Results of games prior to July 14 are not available at press time.<\/p>\n<p>Post 444 began their momentum by white-washing the four opponents they played June 25-26 in the Lebanon, Mo., Tournament as Post 444 outscored the opposition, 39-0. They also went 4-2 in the Tournament of Champions in games played July 1-4 at two sites in Illinois, finishing as semifinalist. Post 444 went 3-1 July 1-2 in Fairview Heights winning Pool D in a three-way tiebreaker over St. Charles and Fairview Heights, reasons not available, then in Alton on July 4 won the quarterfinal over St. Peters before losing to eventual tournament winner Highland, Ill.<\/p>\n<p>In District 10 play Florissant won two games over Thoman-Boothe, Oakville and Creve Coeur then went 1-1 against Eureka, Ballwin and Maryland Heights and lost two games to Manchester. Florissant won two over Jennings, a new team to Legion Baseball who had only 14 players but unlike Florissant, who has a junior and freshman teams, Jennings, who only had a senior team, folded after June 20 so the games did not count in District 10. In other non-league and non-tournament teams Post 444 lost to St. Charles while going 1-1 against St. Peters and against non-Legion teams Post 444 has wins over Johnny Mac and the Stallions 17 team.<\/p>\n<p>Having only 14 players the 14 wins in 16 games prior to the District 10 Tournament is something to be proud of but winning the District 10 Tournament could be like \u201chaving a cherry on top of whipped topping for desert.\u201d \u201cWe\u2019re playing great,\u201d said head coach Todd Wright, (not to be confused with a nationally syndicated radio talk show host on Sporting\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 News Radio KFNS 590 in St. Louis).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPitching has been solid,\u201d said Wright, \u201cevery pitcher has been going thought the whole game.\u201d Half of the team, seven players, has pitched during the season and five of them have pitched a competed game. Leading the way is C. J. Spink, who has pitched in 12 games, including seven starts and at least six complete games, not including the July 8 shutout (2-0) over Creve Coeur. (box score not available)\u00a0 Spink had a 6-3 record, a 1.74 earned run average prior to July 8 and has struck out 60 batters prior to the District 10 Tournament.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5990\" title=\"C.J_Spink pg 12\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.flovalleynews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/C.J_Spink-pg-12-198x300.jpg?resize=198%2C300\" alt=\"C.J_Spink pg 12\" width=\"198\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong> C.J.
