WILLIAMSBURG — Just when it looked as if Whitley County was gaining some momentum, they suffer a setback.
This time around, the setback was Thursday’s 18-2 loss to Pulaski County.
The Lady Colonels (6-17) held a slim 2-1 lead after the first inning before things began to snowball.
The Lady Maroons took a 4-2 lead with three runs in the second inning before adding nine runs in the fourth inning, and five runs in the fifth inning.
Whitley County finished with only one hit — Ryleigh Perry, who went 1-for-1 with a home run, two RBI, and one run scored, and eight errors in defense.
Amber Brown also scored a run, and finished with a walk while Mackenzie Lunsford took the loss, pitching five innings while allowing 19 hits, and six earned runs. She struck out one batter.
