Life is full of second chances. So was Saturday’s Class 3 softball state championship game between the Fatima Lady Comets and the Chillicothe Lady Hornets. Fatima pitcher Taylor Baumhoer received a second chance in that game, and she made the most of it.
The Fatima Lady Comets would like to remind everyone no lead is safe until the final out is made. That lesson earned themselves a softball state championship Saturday afternoon. Trailing by nine runs at the end of two innings against the Chillicothe Lady Hornets, the Lady Comets scored 10 unanswered runs, and after losing a one-run lead in the bottom of the seventh inning, they had two more runs cross the plate in the eighth inning. Those final two runs were the deciding factor, among many other key moments along the way, that gave Fatima a 16-14 victory against Chillicothe in the Class 3 state title game at Killian Softball Complex.
