In week seven, the Lady Pirate softball team solidified their district championship with a 2-1, nine innings win over #2 Harrah.
Junior McKenna Ingram was stellar in the circle, striking out 18 batters. Harrah’s Tori Miller was also crafty in the circle, striking out 11 and making it a pitcher’s’ dual.
Harrah scored early in the second inning when their shortstop doubled and was then singled in. The Lady Pirates struck back in the sixth inning when Ingram walked and Abby Morgan was able to single her in to tie the game.
In the top of the ninth Kinzie Williams singled and was then able to score on an error, making it 2-1 and the Pirates were able to hold the Panthers in the bottom of the ninth for the win. The Lady Pirates are finishing their week on a road trip to Chickasha, where far they shut out Lawton 14-0 and beat Carl Albert 13-3.
Against Carl Albert Bristow’s Jaci Shelton belted two home runs, one of which was a grand slam to give her six RBI’s in the win. Winning District play earns Bristow hosting rights for Regionals, which will begin October 7.
