WCMS falls to Wilson
|
Unfortunately for the Lady Pioneers, most of that production was on the West Wilson side of the ledger, as they cruised to a 14-3, four-inning win.
Batting around in the first, third and fourth innings, Wilson took an early 5-0 lead against Lady Pioneer starter Gabi Keith, and posted another run in the second before a double play on a line-drive to center and a throw back to second base ended that frame.
In the third, Wilson expanded its lead to double digits, sending nine batters to the plate and scoring four runs on three hits and an error, taking a 10-0 edge before Ali Young fanned the ninth batter to retire the side.
Warren County tried to make a comeback in the bottom of the third, and put up its three runs on five hits.
Lindsey Rowland opened the fame with a single to the right side, stole second and took third on a single from Lauren Wilkinson. Christy Perry drove in the team?s first run when she followed with an infield single, and Bethani McGuire plated Wilkinson with a single to right, taking second on a wild pitch and scoring with Morgan Frye followed with another base knock to right field.
West Wilson answered by adding four more runs in the top of the fourth, however, scoring on an infield single and a groundout and plating two more runs on a dropped fly ball in right field.
Warren County?s Rowland reached on a two-out walk in the bottom of the fourth, but Wilson got out of the inning without any further damage to capture the nine-run win.
WCMS returned to action Thursday at White County, and is scheduled to take on Cannon County in a junior varsity game today on the road. Its next home game is set for Monday, April 10, against Algood.
