Chance became the career hit leader at MPHS last night. He was 3-3 on the night and of course he broke the record with 💣 #3 for the season. I am beyond words. For what this boy has been through to end up in this spot is truly unbelievable. Love you buddy!!!

Chance played his final home game as a Hilltopper tonight. So proud of him and all of his accomplishments on and off the field. With the double and RBI tonight, he became the all time leader in career RBI. Way to go buddy. Luv ya

Congratulations to @ChancePayne44 on making all state! An honor that he certainly earned. 3ER and 94K’s in 47 innings on the mound against some tough opponents and a stellar year at the plate. Chance is one of the best players in the state and is still uncommitted!
