He added that Alton Middle had not won a match until prior to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

"It is definitely good to see them win a game," he said. "This is something we all really wanted. The good thing is we won in a convincing fashion by a 4-0 margin. This was a big accomplishment for the team."

C.J. is the host of the Our Daily Show! on Riverbender.com and also a contributor to a significant amount of the website's content.
