Jonesboro: Defeated Sylvan Hills 9-1, Defeated Texarkana 13-2, Defeated GCT 13-3

Rundown:

Jonesboro has a loaded stable of arms and bats but Van Buren isn't lacking in there share of arms or bats either. Having not matched up this year this should be a high octane game. Jonesboro the favorite based off numbers of commits, Van Buren is scrappy and should fight for every inch. Momentum is on the mound and Connor Johnson for Van Buren should match any of the many arms Jonesboro looks to run out against them. Would not be surprised to see a highly volatile game between these two clubs who both have the amount of players to make this a game many people remember.
