CORBIN — Whitley County picked up a much-needed win on Wednesday, defeating Jellico, Tenn. in three innings to pick up a 15-0 win over the Lady Blue Devils.
Seventh grader Caylee Singleton picked up her first varsity win while notching a No-hitter during the process. She tossed three hits less, and scoreless innings while striking out seven batters.
The Lady Colonels (4-9) snapped a three-game losing skid in the process, and will be back in action with two games Thursday against Cumberland County.
Whitley County scored nine runs in the first inning, and never looked back, adding three more runs in the second inning, and three more in the third inning.
“It was nice to be able to get some other girls in and give them a chance to hit,” Whitley County coach Angela Singleton said. “We are still looking for our solid 9/10 girls but today showed us some good stuff. We set some goals as a team and they went out there and achieved them. I’m proud of them.”
Morgan Huddleston led the Lady Colonels at the plate, going 2-for-2 with two RBI, and one run scored. Kara Kanada was perfect at the plate with a 2-for-2 effort, driving in two runs, and scoring twice while Charley Chaney had a hit, two RBI, and one run scored. Amber Brown, Ryleigh Petrey, Chandra Price, and Jayden Barton each finished with a hit, and RBI apiece. Mackenzie Lunsford collected a hit, and scored once. Kyra Dean had a hit, and a run scored while Adalee Johnson, Ciara Pittman, and Jadynn Johnson each scored once. Makenzie Carr drove in a run.
