Hess Stars in 15-9 Imperials Win
Zach Hess powered the Chuluota Imperials to a win over the Jacksonville Nationals. The final score was 15-9. The Chuluota left fielder, who is tied for 9th in the SC in RBI with 26, was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 3 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 2 doubles. The Imperials, now 17-7, have hit the ground running this season.

In the bottom of the fifth, Chuluota right fielder Nick Blanks had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Blanks stroked a run-scoring single to center. It made the score 10-8, Chuluota. For the game, he went 2-4 with 2 singles and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Blanks.
