    Crazy for these two schools to drive all the way over to Bonifay and play a district game when they are at least 20 min away from one another.

    Frank, I might have misunderstood you, but just so you know, Northview is bigger than Jay (500 at NHS, 300 at Jay).

    Congrats to both teams! Smaller or not, Jay has a strong baseball and softball program, and Northview has really built their baseball the last few years

    Congrats NHS, but not bad for a small school to compete like that…Good game Jay!
