LFO picks up three wins to vault above .500
The LFO Lady Warriors welcomed Murray County to Chip Liner Field last Tuesday night for a Region 6-AAA contest and it quickly turned in to the Haley Stahl show.
The junior not only fired a three-hit shutout in the circle, but also belted two homeruns and collected five RBIS in LFO’S 6-0 victory.
The Bryan College commit hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the first inning and launched a three-run bomb in the second inning after back-to-back one-out walks.
Stahl also had a hand in LFO’S final run of the night, which came in the fourth inning. Keelie Mauk reached base on an error and took second on a Stahl single. Mauk then moved to third on a groundout by Julie Shore and raced home on a wild pitch.
Stahl finished 3-for-4 at the plate, while Shore was 2-for-3. Stahl also had five strikeouts and did not allow a walk to get the shutout victory.
Calhoun 4, LFO 1
The Lady Warriors carried a 1-0 lead over top-ranked Calhoun into the fourth inning on Thursday, but the homestanding Lady Jackets would tie the game with a run in the bottom of the fourth before adding two runs in the top of the fifth. They would tack on one insurance run in the sixth to score the victory.
Mauk had a hit, a stolen base and a sacrifice for the Lady Warriors and drove in the team’s only run of the night. Stahl gave up 10 hits and two walks in six innings, but allowed just two earned runs and finished with four strikeouts.
Saturday was a successful day for the Lady Warriors, who won a pair of games at the Carrollton Slam Tournament.
LFO 4, Heard County 2
In a game that was called after six innings due to the time limit, the Lady Warriors scored three times in the bottom of the third inning to erase a 2-1 deficit.
Shore, Mauk and Shelby Houts all had one single each for the LFO, while Mauk, Houts and Stahl all picked up RBIS. Stahl pitched all six innings, allowing two earned runs on seven hits and one walk with four strikeouts.
LFO 9, South Paulding 0
Stahl hurled a five-inning perfect game as she finished with five strikeouts in the victory. Offensively, Taylor Bono had a double and two RBIS. Shore had a hit, scored twice and drove in two. Maddy Adkins was 2-for-2 with two RBIS and Houts collected one RBI for LFO (8-6, 2-3).
