Rockmart has won two games, lost one, and tied one, according to head coach Archie Scott.

On Feb. 21, Rockmart and Darlington played to a 7-7 tie. Two days later, the Yellow Jackets fell to Polk County rival Cedartown 6-5. But, Rockmart bounced back after those two games to record two straight wins.

On Feb. 27, Rockmart took care of Coosa 8-2 and on March 2, the Yellow Jackets outslugged Armuchee 10-6.

Scott noted that so far this season the Yellow Jackets have been led at the plate by Chris Short, Will Deems, and Cam Jones. After four games, Short had a .700 batting average with six runs batted in. Deems was hitting .583 with six runs scored while Jones was hitting .600 with four runs batted in and four runs scored.
