Carroll Middle School 🏫 softball made the trek over to Mountain View Park in Galax Monday afternoon.
The eclipse wasn’t an issue but the hit and miss rain was a little bit of a deterrent. The game got underway just before 5pm.
Cavaliers…. 1 0 0 – 1
Galax ……. 3 4 4 – 11
Taking pictures 📷 at this park is a challenge without the rain 🌧 but I will do the best I can to capture the efforts of these young Ladies.
Galax plates four more in the second inning after two outs had been recorded, now 7-1 in the top of the 3rd inning
The Cavaliers go down in order in the top of the 3rd, still 7-1
Back out to the field…
