The Tullahoma Lady Wildcats softball team opened the season with a bang, run ruling Grundy County 16-1 in three innings at East Middle School in Tullahoma Monday.
After falling behind 1-0 in the top of the first the Lady Cats struck right back as they sent 12 batters to the plate and put 7 runs on the board. They’d bat around as well in the second as 10 Tullahoma batters came to the plate and another 6 runs were tallied by the Lady Cats. Finally Tullahoma scored three more runs in the bottom of the third to end the game early.
Madison Goad was 3-3 with a double, 2 RBI and 2 runs scored to lead the way for the Lady Cats and earn Tennessee Homes Player of the Game honors. Addyson Norman was 3-4 with 3 RBI and Maggie Lynch made the most of her limited plate appearances tallying 3 runs scored.
Amaya Sharp picked up the win in the dirt circle allowing just 1 run and no hits in two innings of work. Sharp walked 2 and struck out 4. AC Holloway pitched a three up third inning in relief duty.
The Lady Cats host Webb today at 5:30. The next broadcast on the Tennessee Homes Spring Showcase is Sunday at 3:00 when Tullahoma hosts Coffee County.
