Coffee Co. Eliminates Soddy Daisy In AAA Sectional Softball
Lady Raiders Score Game Winner On Inside-The-Park Homer In Seventh Saturday, May 22, 2021 - by James Beach
A region loss simply meant down, but not out to the Coffee County Lady Raider softball team. It cost them some gas money for a trip to Soddy Daisy Friday night for a Sectional battle against the Region 3AAA champion Lady Trojans.
A pair of strikeouts in two previous at-bats for No. 9 hitter Olivia Evans was equally put in the rear view mirror as the junior lefty came through with the biggest hit of her career and the season for the Lady Raiders. The diminutive Evans sliced a liner to left field with two outs in the top of the seventh that eluded a diving Makayla Perez for an inside-the-park homer to spark a 2-1 victory and sent Coffee County to next week’s Spring Fling State Tournament where the price of gas will be considerably cheaper.
