CAMPTON — The North Laurel Lady Jaguars reached the 10-run plateau for the fifth time this season during their 14-6 road win over Wolfe County.
The Lady Jaguars are now sitting perfect at 6-0.
“Wolfe County has a nice team and their pitcher, Chloe Creech, really changes speed and spins the ball very well,” North Laurel coach Chris Edwards said. “We fought really throughout the first part of the game to adjust. We only lead 2-0 through four.
“We started hitting in the fifth and ended with 14 hits on the night,” he added. “The girls really ran the bases well and we were able to push several runs across. A lot of credit to Wolfe County. They put four on the board and got back into the game but we responded with five runs in the fifth and four more in the 6th.”
Seventh grader Emma Carl picked up her second straight win in the pitcher’s circle, throwing five inning while allowing only two earned runs, and finishing with two strikeouts. Reagan Isaac pitched the final two innings, allowing two earned runs while striking out two batters.
“We ran Emma back out to the mound tonight after she threw a great game Saturday,” Edwards said. “She gave us five good innings, allowed four runs, only two were earned. Reagan Isaac came in and finished it up. She pitched well again also.
“We made a couple of defensive mistakes that we normally don’t make, so we have to clean that up but another good night,” he added. “Very proud of my girls tonight. Back home tomorrow. Go Jags.”
Carl also done damage at the plate, connecting with a home run, and finishing with two hits while driving in two runs, and scoring twice.
Bella Sizemore had three hits at the plate, including a double while driving in two runs.
