It was a devaju doubleheader Friday night for the Shelby County Wildcats, as they were swept by Sylacauga 6-3 and 10-3.

The Wildcats picked up an early lead in both games, but mid-game errors helped lead to a number of runs to help the Aggies pull ahead.

Josh Dikis helped start the game with a bases-loaded double to score two runs and give the Wildcats a 2-0 lead after the first inning. The lead grew to 3-0 with an RBI single by Nick Oliver in the top of the third inning. However, Sylacauga took advantage of two Wildcat errors and a three-run home run to pull ahead 4-3.

Oliver allowed five runs, only two earned, through four innings pitched, while striking out three and allowing three hits.

Game two was similar to the first game, as the Wildcats took advantage of a passed ball to take a 1-0 lead in the first inning. After the Aggies evened the score in the bottom of the first, Wesley Howard scored on an error at third base to give Shelby County a 2-1 lead.

The third inning played out similar to game one, as the Aggies collected five runs off three hits and three errors to pull in front 6-2. They added three more runs off a hit and four errors in the fourth inning. A solo home run in the fifth rounded out the scoring for the Aggies, while an Aaron Howard bomb in the seventh rounded out the offense for the Wildcats.

Earlier in the week, the Wildcats (10-8) swept Calera in a doubleheader 11-9 and 10-9. Wesley Howard collected three hits, including two doubles in game one, while Josh Dikis, Aaron Howard and Graham Davis had two hits, including a home run by Aaron Howard.

In game two, Calera rallied with five runs in the top of the seventh, but fell just short. Matt Tracy collected four hits and nine RBIs on the night to lead Calera, while Paul Winterbottom had three hits.
