MOUNT VERNON — Corbin’s 13-game win streak came to an end on Tuesday after Rockcastle County rallied with two runs in the bottom of the seventh to gather a 4-3 win.
The one-run loss was the Lady Redhounds’ first since April, as their record falls to 16-5. Corbin will take a few days off before hosting No. 2 ranked North Laurel on Monday, May 8.

A single by Raegan Walker, and a bunt single by Anela Sanders moved Walker to third base. Kennedie Guiher tied the game after grounding out to the pitcher while a hit to centerfield by Alana Stidham scored the go-head run at 3-2.
