Bennett Batters Butler HS for 5 Hits
Eric Bennett of the Paints was unstoppable in his team's 16-2 victory over the Butler HS Tornado at Black Bears Stadium. He battered them for 5 hits in 6 at-bats.

"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the Newport News HS third baseman after the game. "I could see the ball real well. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-for-6 won't hurt your batting average like 0-for-5 will."

Eric Bennett singled in the 2nd, hit a GRAND SLAM off Theron Dennis in the 3rd, struck out in the 4th, hit a two-run double in the 6th, singled in the 8th and singled in the 9th.

This year, Bennett is hitting at a .286 pace with 1 home run and 7 RBIs. He has played in 10 games and scored 5 times.
