Panola Ponies hope to knock Navarro out of first place today.

The doubleheader matchup between first place Navarro and Panola College will start at 3 p.m. at Jim Reeves Memorial Field in Carthage.

Panola is currently tied with Angelina and Texarkana for second place in the conference, but a sweep of Navarro today would move the Ponies into first place.

The Ponies swept Paris on April 16, winning 5-2 and 2-1, and now hold a 13-7 conference record.

Head Coach Todd Shelton plans to start Weldon Davis on the mound in game one. The starting pitcher for game two will be Nick Alexiou.
