Class 3A

Per usual, the Bushland bomb squad was out in full force led by slugger Abby Howell. The Lady Falcon senior slugger feasted on Lady Eagle pitching going 2-for-2 with a pair of two-run home runs finishing the game with four RBIs.

Teammate and senior leader Brylee Adams countered with a very special evening. Adams went 3-for-3 in the circle with a homer of her own with two RBIs. Adams also threw all five innings allowing only one hit racking up 12 strikeouts to go over 700 K’s for her illustrious career.

The Lady Falcons (25-5-1) will take on Presidio (11-16-1) in the area round at a time and place to be determined.

River Road sweeps Childress, Smirl gets win No. 300 

It was a very special series for the River Road Lady Cats and head coach David Smirl during a bi-district sweep of Childress on Thursday and Friday in Canadian.

River Road moved past the Lady Bobcats getting a 10-7 victory in game one followed by an 11-3 win in game two that completed the sweep.

The game two win meant the most to Smirl who earned his 300th career victory in 23 years. Smirl started the Tascosa Lady Rebels program 15 years ago and has spent the last six years as the Lady Wildcats head coach.

Sidnee Kane was the MVP of the series for the Lady Wildcats especially on Thursday. Kane torched Childress going 3-for-4 hitting a career-high three homers with five RBIs. Kane followed that effort with a three-run blast in game two.

River Road (21-9) advances to the area round to battle Alpine (19-16) at a time and place to be determined.

Childress ends its season at 18-11.

Tulia takes down Slaton 

After falling in game one, Tulia rallied back to take the next two games to beat Slaton in a best-of-three bi-district series on Saturday afternoon at Lubbock Christian High School.

On Friday, Slaton dominated Tulia 14-3 in the series opener only for the Lady Hornets to battle back to even the series with a 15-13 win in the night cap. On Saturday, Tulia was able to claim a 10-9 victory over Slaton to win the series.

Tulia (19-14-2) moves on to the area round and will now meet up with Lamesa (15-15-1) with the first of a three-game series starting at 6 p.m. on Thursday at Lubbock-Cooper.

In the decisive game three, Slaton led 9-8 in the top of the sixth until Tulia’s Jerrica Brookins delivered a two-run shot to centerfield that the ballpark couldn’t hold that gave the Lady Hornets the eventual win 10-9.

Kyla Rodriguez was key in the series for Tulia making her mark in game two going 4-for-4 at the dish hitting an eye-opening three home runs to finish with six RBIs.

West Plains (18-15-1) squares off with El Paso Riverside (16-16) in the area round at a time and place to be determined.

Randall advances past Andrews

It took all three games; however, the Randall Lady Raiders were able to advance past Andrews in the bi-district round on Friday and Saturday at Lubbock Christian University.

The Lady Raiders took the first game 10-4 but fell 14-9 in game two forcing a decisive game three. In the final matchup, Randall had no issues by rolling to a 12-1 victory.

The Dumas bats were on full display hitting eight home runs as a team. Standout Vida Fierro was a combined 6-for-7 in the wins with two homers and six RBIs. Teammate Kati Contreras went 5-for-9 with three RBIs.
