On the softball field, the class AAAAAA top-ranked Houston County Bears had a double header against class AAAAAAA ninth-ranked Lowndes. In game one, Houston County came right out of the gate with four runs in the bottom of the first inning. The Bears played lock down defense with senior Rylee Lamb on the mound. Lamb pitched for five innings, racking up four strikeouts while giving up only two hits for zero runs. As the Vikings offense failed to put points on the board, the Bears continued to put the bat on the ball, scoring two runs in the second inning while adding a single run in the third and fifth to claim the first game 8-0. Senior Madi Campbell and junior Makayla Krepps led the team with two hits each, one of which was a double for Campbell.
In game two, the Bears were held to just two runs in the first after giving up a run to Lowndes. They would soon break away and score six runs in the second and a final run in the fifth, giving up zero runs to the Vikings since their first-inning score. Junior Olivia Brown pitched three innings and collected three strikeouts, while freshman Hannah Cantrell pitched two innings and recorded one strikeout. Senior Carley Rollins and junior Elena Olson led the team with two hits each, with one of Olson’s hit going over the fence for a home run to help walk away with the 9-1 win.
