Lakeview junior Dallas Deavers wasn’t much of a strikeout pitcher until this season, and he’s never hit a lot of home runs. Tell that to Prince Avenue Christian, which had a front-row seat when Deavers struck out 14 Wolverines batters and hit a second-inning grand slam to lead Lakeview to a 6-5 win over its Region 8-A opponent last Tuesday. “I was just trying to put a ball in play,” Deavers said of his first home run of the season.
