Valkyries Fall to Falcons and Cobras

COLUMBUS, GA – The Valkyries softball team dropped their first two games at the Columbus State Tournament to Montevallo (11-3) and Coker (10-2).
 
Game 1 Final: Montevallo 11-3 Converse
Game 2 Final: Coker 10-2 Converse

Game 1 Notes:
  • Top 5 – Going into the inning, the Valkyries were down 9-0 to the Montevallo Falcons. Brooke Scruggs would start the inning off by singling to left field. Brooklyn McElrath would then single to right field allowing Scruggs to advance to second. Dallas Singleton would sacrifice bunt, pushing her teammates to third and second base. Following Singleton, Ryan Finazzo singled to right field. Both Scruggs and McElrath would cross home plate on the play giving Converse 2 runs. The next batter, Maggie Griffis, hit a single up the middle which helped Finazzo reach second base. Abbigale Outlaw reached second during her at-bat because of a fielding error by Falcons' second baseman, Sydnee Pawlak. Another error by Pawlak allowed for Finazzo to run home, unearned.
  • Serrah Ballard (0-1) would pick up the loss for the Valkyries after pitching 3.1 innings and recording 4 strikeouts. Reagan Owens (0-2) also pitched (1.1 IP) during the game.
Game 2 Notes:
  • Top 2 – A 1-0 Coker lead would not phase Faith Hauser and the Valkyries. Hauser would hit a double to center field, and Grace McKinney would send her home making it a 1-1 game.
  • Top 6 – Hauser would get hit by a pitch, sending her to first base. Off of McKinney's sacrifice bunt, Hauser advanced to second. A wild pitch to Brooke Scruggs allowed Hauser to make it to third base. Serrah Ballard flied out to right field, but it allowed for Hauser to pick up another run for the Valkyries.
  • Ballard (0-2) would be given the loss as the pitcher for Converse after pitching 5.2 innings and recording 2 strikeouts.
