On Thursday, both Houston County and Veterans hosted scrimmages before they go head-up in Monday’s season opener.
Veterans played Rutland, who they mercy-ruled on the way to a win.
Houston County defeated West Laurens in their scrimmage and now both teams will come into this season with some momentum.
The Houston County Bears were ranked the No.23 team in the nation by Perfect Game during the preseason.
Expectation may be high given the ranking and highly touted players, but with the standard the Bears have set over recent years, the expectation is already high without or without rank.
The Bears will host the Veterans Warhawks at home for their game on Monday, Feb.15 at 6:00 p.m.
