At Fries, freshman flame-thrower Wes Self fired a one-hitter for his seventh win in eight decisions as Grayson County ripped Giles County 10-0 in a Mountain Empire District baseball game Friday.

Self, who pitched a no-hitter earlier this season, struck out eight and walked only one. Chad Shaffner and Shane Widener provided the offense for Grayson (11-5, 6-1), knocking in three runs each on two hits.

In New Castle, Glenvar's Jason Anderson shut out Craig County in a 9-0 Pioneer District victory. Anderson walked two, struck out 15 and allowed five hits, three to Craig County's Mike All. Glenvar's four-run fifth inning was keyed by David Henderson's two-run single. Glenvar is 12-2-1 overall and 9-0 in the district; Craig is 6-10 and 5-6.

At Radford, Carroll County used a six-run sixth inning to earn a 7-4 New River District victory and clinch the district championship.

In Bedford, Liberty rallied for a 5-4 Seminole District victory over Staunton River. The Golden Eagles (7-9 overall and in the district) blew a 4-0 lead. Jaimie Dooley had a solo home run for Liberty (6-10 and 6-10).

In Daleville, Kameron Crowder hit a solo homer and David Dixon added a three-run shot to spark a nine-run second inning that carried Alleghany to a 12-3 victory over Lord Botetourt in the Blue Ridge District. Pat Hall pitched six innings to pick up the victory for the Mountaineers (10-4, 5-3). He gave up four hits and struck out seven.
