Lady Tigers Hit Albany and NEN Out of the Park By: Laci Burnett
On Tuesday, September 30th, the High School Softball girls traveled to Albany to play against the Warriors. The girls played a hard game and, according to Coach H, “[...] we were able to play some great Softball and give them their second loss of the year.” Coach H was proud and continued to praise their hard work throughout the next few days. Our girls came ready to win, and Coach H says, “They started their number two pitcher and we instantly started hitting her hard and found some gaps, and we had a really big third inning that caused them to bring in their number one pitcher [...].” Our Lady Tigers continued to fight hard and got their welldeserved win when the game ended 6-5. Thursday night, October 2, they headed out to play against the Bluejays at Northeast Nodaway and ended the game after 5 innings with a winning score of 12-2. They fought against them hard and got 5 runs in the first inning alone. They will continue to play hard in the Mid-Buchanan tournament on Saturday, October 4th. Come out and support your Lady Tigers while they play some amazing Softball, and show up to Senior Night on Monday at 4:30.
