KIMBERLY A nine-run second inning thrusted the Hewitt-Trussville baseball team to a 13-9 road win over Mortimer Jordan on Tuesday night.
“To me, this is a good win against a really solid team,” said Hewitt-Trussville head coach Jeff Mauldin.
The Huskies sent 14 batters to the plate during the top of the second, collecting four hits, including a Riley Quick grand slam, to claim a 9-0 advantage. Hudson Boren singled home the first run before a walk and hit-by-pitch sent the second run across.
Mortimer Jordan starter Austin Morris proceeded to walk and plunk the third and fourth runs in before Quick emptied the bases with a towering grand slam to left field. Hewitt-Trussville went to the home-half of the second with a 9-0 lead.
A trio of local softball teams were in action on Tuesday night in non-area play.

Hewitt-Trussville 7, Hoover 1
Coming off a first-place finish in the Hewitt Round Robin last weekend, the Huskies started this week with a 7-1 home win over Hoover. Hewitt-Trussville (13-1) put 11 hits on the visitors thanks in part to multi-hit efforts from Anyce Harvey (four with one RBI), Kenleigh Cahalan (two with three RBIs) and Hannah Dorsett (two). Cahalan doubled and homered for the Huskies.
Sarah Hindman got the start and tossed seven innings of one-hit, one-run ball to earn the win. She forced 10 groundouts, eight flyouts, struck out two batters and pinned nine Bucs on base.
