The Tyrone Lady Eagles kept their winning streak alive, making it seven in a row with an 11-0 win against Bishop McCort.
After starting the season a disappointing 0-5, there is no doubt that the Lady Eagles have found their groove.
In Tuesday’s game, junior Ally McNelis drove in three RBIs and helped the Lady Eagles end their game early.
Pitcher Kaitlyn Rockwell, had three hits. Amariah Sprankle also helped the Lady Eagles with three hits.
To start the game, senior Sam Shaw got a single, followed by a single from sophomore Kaitlyn Rockwell, an RBI by senior Layna Dibert, a triple from sophomore Lucy Fogelman scoring Rockwell, a triple by junior Amariah Sprankle scoring Fogelman, and a single from freshman Sage Harris scoring Sprankle. Making the score 4-0.
The top of the third inning was no different, starting with a double from Sprankle, followed by a single from Harris advancing Sprankle to third, an RBI by junior Allison McNelis scoring Sprankle.
Tyrone had a big fifth inning, scoring six runs to end the game.
The inning started with a double from Fogelman, a single from Sprankle, a single from Harris, and a single from McNelis scoring two, a walk from Shaw, a single from Rockwell scoring two, and a double from Dibert scoring one.
The Lady Eagles had a great game in the field and ended the game in five innings. If it weren’t for their excellent defense and aggressive bats, the Lady Eagles might not have been able to finish the game, considering the downpour that started right after the last inning.
Assistant Coach Joe Lukaitis is happy with the drive the girls have shown in the recent games.
“Our effort and energy have been consistent, and it has shown in our ability to continue to be successful on the field,” Lukaitis said.
