Shortly after a loss in the recent FCA Jason Armstrong Baseball Classic, St. James head baseball coach Keith Lucky chose to look ahead to games that would count more than an 11-4 loss to Trinity Presbyterian.

“Everybody is building towards the area games,” Lucky said. “We take what we can out of games like this and move on.”

The time has now come for the Trojans and many of the baseball teams in the River Region, which open area play this weekend. St. James is one of several teams that begin “the ones that count” on Thursday.
