ETHEL —
The Lady Tigers hosted the Weir Lady Lions last Thursday and won the contest 21-6. They traveled to Carthage on Friday to take on Leake Central and then on to Noxapater on Monday, losing both contests 16-1 and 12-2 respectively.
In last Thursday’s game against the Weir Lady Lions Taylor Hanna and Lauren Bouchillon combined to pitch four innings allowing six runs on 12 walks while striking out five hitters.
The offensive leaders for the Lady Tigers were Makinzee Rone with two singles and one run scored, Dallas Burkes with two singles and three runs scored, Brooke Self with two singles and four runs scored, Lauren Bouchillon with one single and two runs scored, Avery Bouchillon with one single and two runs scored, Shelby Varnes with one triple and two runs scored, Haley Breazeale with one single and three runs scored and Lindsey McNeal with one single and three runs scored.
Rounding out the offense for the Lady Tigers was Juliyah Erving with one run scored.
“I was very pleased with our win over Weir,” said Ethel head coach Jim Wood. “I think we did a good job at the plate by putting the ball in play at every opportunity.”
The Lady Tigers traveled to Leake Central on Friday and dropped the contest 16-1 to the 4A school prompting coach Wood to say, “The loss at Leake Central was a tough one but I feel like our effort level was there.”
They fell again on Monday to Noxapater 12-2 and Wood added, “The Noxapater loss may have been the best total game that we have played to this point. We just made mistakes at bad times and could never come up with the timely base-clearing hit. I was very pleased with our effort and focus.”
The Lady Tigers will be back in action on Thursday when they travel to Weir for a 4 p.m. contest and again on Friday when they host Noxapater at 4 p.m.
