High expectations usually accompany the baseball hotbed that is Rowan County, but West Rowan's Baseball team came into the season with unusually higher than normal expectations.
The Falcons were preseason ranked # 3 in the Impact Baseball poll. After starting the season 0-6, West is on a roll recently winning the Wilmington-Ashley Easter Tournament defeating some top notch competition.
With a North Piedmont Conference (NPC) victory on Monday, the Falcons have squared their conference record at 3-3.
High expectations are always on the tradition-rich East Rowan Mustangs whose only blip on the conference radar so far is a loss at the hands of Nick Lomascola and Lake Norman.
Both teams will have to play back to back nights thanks to Mother Nature's "kindness" on Tuesday. Both teams also figure to counter with good arms in this highly anticipated match-up Friday night in Granite Quarry.
A West Rowan win would surely shake up the conference standings and a East Rowan win would keep the Mustangs at pace with Lake Norman.
So with all the high expectations aside (yeah right), it should be a hotly contested game Friday night.
