The Chiefs were on the road, traveling to Smith County to take on the Owls. Smith County jumped out to a big 8-0 early lead only to see the Chiefs come roaring back in the late innings, but the rally would fall just little short as the Owls held on in the last inning to take the win and eliminate Sequoyah from the playoffs with the final score of 8-6. Even though the Chiefs’ season is over, the team has a lot to be proud of, as it proved to be one of the better squads in the state, winning its second straight district title and advancing SPECIALS! to the regional tournament and on to the sectionals. The Chiefs finish with a record of 27 wins and 7 losses and with key players returning next year, Sequoyah will once again be a team to reckon in the season to come. Things looked rough early for Sequoyah as it just could not find any offense and did not score a run in the first three innings of play. Smith County, on the other hand, jumped out to a big lead as it took advantage of several errors and mistakes from the Chiefs defense. The Owls scored two runs in the first inning, five runs in the second, and one run in the third as they built a big 8- 0 lead after three innings of play.
