While some of the Adults that were up way past their normal bedtime where showing the effects 😴 of getting back to town late last night 🌙 from the contest with James River, Coach Alexis Dalton and her squad were locked 🔒 in and ready to play ball at 5pm.
Addie Greene followed up her second No Hitter on the year by allowing the hard hitting visitors from Auburn just three base hits. The Cavalier defense played flawless behind her and the offense was very opternastic in the bottom of the fourth inning.
Auburn struck first in the second inning when Mallory Akers led off the inning with a Home Run to right field but Greene settled down and only surrendered two singles the rest of the contest.
Auburn defeated the Lady 👩 Cavaliers 11-1 earlier in the season and now led 1-0 heading into the Bottom of the fourth inning.
Faith Clontz reached base on an Auburn error to lead off the inning and Dalton proceeded to have Greene bunt which was executed perfectly for a base hit. Carroll County continued to play Small Ball as Carlie Beamer moved the runners over with a second bunt. Bayleigh Allen laid down a third straight bunt and also beat the throw to first for a single.
Laiken Burnett stepped to the plate and continued her recent tear with her second single of the game which plated Clontz and Greene. One batter later Madison Coleman lined her own 2-run single to push the lead out to 4-1.
Armed with a three run lead Greene returned to the mound and took care of business in posting her second victory in roughly 19 hours.
The Lady Cavaliers will get tomorrow off from a game but will then host Alleghany in a Friday evening Double Header beginning at 5 pm.
