Walk-Off Win for Lady Indians

The Stephens County Lady Indians softball team took Thursday’s Region 8-AAAA home game in dramatic fashion, with a 1-0 walk-off victory over Jefferson.  The game was tied at zero with the Lady Indians batting in the bottom of the tenth inning when Mackenzie Rogers had a bunt single to drive in the lone run.

Emma Whitfield, who pitched a complete game, did not allow a run and struck out 13 batters.

Stephens County improves to 10 & 1 overall and 3 & 1 in region play.  The Lady Indians will be back in action Saturday on the road as they play in the Veterans Tournament against Monsignor Donovan, Tattnall Square Academy, and Ola.  They’ll return to Region 8-AAAA play Tuesday when they host North Oconee—JV play at 4:30pm and the varsity game at 5:55pm.
