Seventh grader Aubrey Higgins or Cornelia was selected as an Indian of the Week by middle school baseball coach Bobby Hammond. “Aubrey had a gusty pitching performance as he pitched the opening game of the year for us,” Hammond said.  “His performance followed the dedication of the baseball complex to his grandfather, so he had a bad case of nerves. The game was tied when he was pulled for pitch count.”
