The Glenville-Emmons baseball team has searched for offense for much of the season and Saturday the Wolverines got it in bunches in Austin.

Glenville-Emmons beat Mabel-Canton 16-1 in five innings to start the day and defeated Houston 13-6 later. The Wolverines (10-6, 4-2 SEC) totaled 33 hits and 29 runs in an output of offense rarely seen this season from the team.

“I think we were a little more patient, we got a little better pitches to hit,” said Glenville-Emmons head coach Louie Toulouse. “What I was pleased about was the bottom half of our order contributed.”
