Colony’s Browning got one of those runs back as she registered the first in-the-park home run in the bottom of the first inning as she put a triple to the right field fence and scored on the throw to the infield.

“I feel pretty good, I’m very proud,” Browning said. “I think everybody on this team has been, like, it’s a new team. Some of us are new this year and so just being able to work together as well as we do is very rewarding.”


JDHS would take control of the game in their next at bat as freshman Sadie Lockhart led off with a single, Echiverri walked and Billings singled and Lockhart and Echiverri scored on an error for 4-2. Nizich walked, senior Bryanna Eakes walked, Billings scored on a wild pitch, Nizich scored on a wild pitch, Wheeler walked, Eakes scored on a passed ball and country wise email marketing list senior Taiya Bentz singled scoring Wheeler for an 8-2 lead.

Time would expire in the bottom of the fourth inning so Colony completed their at bat and Browning doubled to score sophomore Morgan Gallagher and senior Alexis Condon singled to score Browning.

JDHS’ Nizich struck out a batter and fielded a ground ball out to stall the Knights comeback and Crimson Bears’ sophomore Lilly Hayes handled a ground ball at third base to throw out the final batter and end the night.

“We welcome new people to the conference,” Colony coach Tamara Finley said. “And we hope they enjoy coming up to the conference.”

Finley said the pitching between the two games was key.

“We had some fielding errors as well, it’s not just on the pitcher,” she said. “We went from a senior seasoned pitcher to sophomore pitcher. They are both really good pitchers, but there were also some fielding errors that probably should have been cleaned up, but all-in-all it’s not like we didn’t have our chances. I think the girls did really well on both sides.”
