Connor Bennett had so many dazzling performances on the mound for top-ranked Buford this season, it’s hard to single out just one. Wolves coach Tony Wolfe can rattle them off like each happened yesterday. There’s a 15-strikeout no-hitter against White County, 14-strikeout performance against North Hall, and then the five no-hit innings he threw against Sparkman High (Harvest, Ala.) earlier this season in tournament play in LaGrange.
