The NTCC Eagles moved one step closer to the Junior College World Series Wednesday as they swept defending national champion Navarro to earn the regular season conference title.
A pair of outstanding pitching performances from starters Jordan Marah and Tanner Allgood, coupled with a strong defensive showing, carried the day as the Eagles defeated the visiting Bulldogs 3-1 and 2-0.
With the wins, the Eagles finish the regular season 26-10 in Region XIV Eastern Zone play and 33-14 overall.
?We just had a good performance at the plate and in the field today,?

Robert Grant, Morris County Master Gardener (left) taught the students the importance of Earth Day, littering, recycling and reusing. The presentation was coordinated by the ACE (Afterschool Centers on Education) Program, which provides children with meaningful after school activities. ACE is a Texas Education Agency grant program that is administered through Northeast Texas Community College.
The NTCC Eagles (29-13, 22-10) snapped a four-game conference losing streak with a big win Wednesday as Jordan Marah threw a no-hitter against the visiting Paris Junior College Dragons in a 5-0 victory.
The Eagles came into the game on a four-game skid after dropping double headers against Texarkana and Panola last week.
