TAR HEEL – Rylee Chadwick pitched a one-hitter and struck out 6 to lead Bladenboro to a 21-1 Bladen Five Middle School Conference softball victory over Tar Heel Tuesday.
Chadwick limited Tar Heel to only 4 base-runners – a hit batter, a walk and an error produced 3 of them. Tar Heel pitcher Shelby Pharr hammered a solo home run over the rightfielder’s head in the second inning for the only Lady Panther hit.
Bladenboro’s Savannah Turbeville drilled a 3-run home run to centerfield in the third inning. Teammate Kaden Thurman slammed a triple to rightfield that drove in 2 runs.
Catcher McKenzie Singletary batted 2-3 for the Lady Bulldogs. Lauren Pait slammed a double, and Hannah Pait belted a single.
Chadwick, Hannah Hester, Hannah Pait and Turbeville scored 3 runs each for the winners. Thurman and Taylor West scored 2 runs each, and Emma Smith, Singletary, Lainey Autry, Taylor Lewis and Kalee Wilkins scored one run each.
Bladenboro will travel to Clarkton School of Discovery Thursday, while Tar Heel visits Elizabethtown.
