Central Middle too much for WCMS
Murfreesboro’s Central Middle School exploded for 11 hits Monday afternoon at the WCHS softball field on its way to a 13-2 win over Warren County Middle School.
Central put one run across in the first from a walk and a base hit. WCMS put two runners on in its half of the inning, and with two outs MaCall Cooper slapped a base hit to right field to score a run. The Lady Pioneers picked up their second run on a wild pitch, tying the game 2-2.
CMS loaded the bases in the second and then hit an inside-the-park homer to take the 6-2 lead. WCMS picked another hit in the fourth but left the runner on base. In the sixth Central Middle again loaded the bases and again drove the ball deep to center field for another inside-the-park grand slam. CMS added another run in the seventh to end the game via the 10-run mercy rule.
Ashley McBee and Alex Mullican combined for four strikeouts and five walks for WCMS. Elizabeth Kennemer, Kayla Hubbard, Cooper and Mullican each had one hit.
WCMS is scheduled to play host to Cedar Grove Thursday at 4:30.
