GENEVA – A five-run third inning sealed the win for the Troy Angels as they defeated Enterprise 10-6 in the Dixie Softball district tournament on Tuesday.

“We hit the ball really well,” said head coach Larry Sanders. “We had three balls hit over the right-fielder’s head, which really busted the game open.”

Troy was leading 4-3 after the second inning when the bats came alive, he said. Five runs later, the Angels had a 9-3 lead, which they held through the fifth inning.

“Bailey Rushing pitched for us and she went all five innings,” Sanders said. “She had five strikeouts.”

Kelsey Gibson and Gracie Scarbrough both had doubles, with Gibson earning four RBISs. Syndey Armstrong had two RBIs.

Also earning hits on the night were Rushing, Molly Kate Sanders, Nelsey Leverette, Hannah Calhoun, Brooke Bennett and Tucker Earles. Sabra Daniels, Holly Hughes and Armstrong all earned walks.

Troy, 2-0 in the tournament, faces Geneva at 7 p.m. Wednesday. If Troy wins, they will play Enterprise for the championship on Thursday.
