#10 Hailey Walker
The Mansfield Lady Tigers took a road trip to Paris last night to challenge the Lady Eagles to a softball game. Although weather conditions weren’t the worst players and fans have seen, warmer temperatures will be welcomed.
The Lady Eagles didn’t hesitate to start swinging as they quickly put up four runs in the first inning. Mansfield added a run to the scoreboard in the second inning along with the Lady Eagles bringing the tally to 5-1 Paris. After all was said and done, the Mansfield Lady Tigers ended the game with a final score of 6-3 Paris.
Running with a purpose with one run each was Kylie Eveld, Hailey Walker, and Shyann McDowell. Pummeling the softball at two hits each was Kylie Eveld and Maggie Strunk. And with one hit apiece was Caroline Nicodemus with two runners batted in and Amber Elmore with one runner batted in.
The Lady Tigers were raining steals as Kylie Eveld, Hailey Walker, and Abby Morgan combined for a total of six. And pitcher Caroline Nicodemus had a good night with 86 pitches while facing 29 batters, six of which were struck out.
The Clarksville Softball Tournament is up next for the Mansfield Lady Tigers as they head Northeast to first take on the Dover Lady Pirates Friday, March 8 at 5 p.m.
