Charles Henderson fought to the end but the Lady Rams of Brewbaker Tech brought their bats to Troy as they outlasted the Lady Trojans 15-9 Monday night.
Brew Tech took an early 2-0 lead, but CHHS bounced back to go up 3-2 in the bottom of the first when Heather Maxwell walked, Dakota Berry and Stella Gilbreath reached on infield errors, and Hannah Sparrow singled for the 3-2 CHHS advantage after one inning.
The Lady Rams batted around in the top of the second to score seven, and build a 9-2 lead.
CHHS answered with two more in the bottom of the second as McKenzie Cain doubled, Madison Stewart singled and both scored when a hard hit ball by Berry could not be handled in left field by the Lady Rams for another error, making the score 9-5.
Brew Tech put one more run on the board in the top of the fifth to go up 10-5, but CHHS got that one back and another to cut the lead to 10-7 as Gracie Sneed singled, Maxwell followed with a single, Cain reached on a fielder’s choice and Stewart doubled.
The Lady Rams put the game away with five runs in the top of the sixth to go up 15-7, then CHHS answered in the bottom of the seventh inning with two more runs when Berry tripled and scored on a single by Sparrow. Ashlyn Shaver reached on a fielder’s choice and she scored on a triple by Molly Garrett for what would be the 15-9 final.
