Bradford launched a two-run homer and the Lady Warriors pounded out double-digit hits to collect a Thursday night victory over their county rivals.

Jones was 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored for LFO. Lyndsey Teague was 2-for-2 with a double, a run scored and an RBI, while Morrison helped her own cause by going 2-for-3 at the plate.

LFO (5-5 overall, 2-0 in 6-AAA North) was slated to play a non-region game Monday at Dade County, but results were unavailable as of press time. They will travel to Chatsworth on Thursday for a date with Murray County (5:30 p.m.).
