Blowing Rock Edges Buenavista, 1-0, Groves Ks 10
In a low-scoring clash between Blowing Rock and Buenavista, pitcher Gary Groves was a difference-maker. The right-hander earned accolades in the 1-0 win. Mark Thompson, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 2nd save. With the win, Blowing Rock lifts its record to 5-4.

Buenavista had little success against Groves and his changeup. Groves tossed 103 pitches over 7.1 innings for the 49ers.

Groves was in a reflective mood after the contest. He told the Blowing Rock Daily, "Every game is it's own challenge. That's what keeps the competitive fire alive."
