CHAPEL HILL — After striking the Forrest Lady Rockets with a one-run, walk-off victory in their first meeting, it was Forrest who got a little payback in a key District 7-AA clash last week against Community.
Aside from a single Lady Rocket run that scored on an error, the two teams nearly mirrored each others’ efforts in the 1-0 Forrest win.
Both teams managed seven hits and both teams got an absolute gem from the pitcher’s circle.
Forrest’s Taylor Moreland tossed seven shutout innings and gave up seven hits, while striking out two and walking three.
Community’s Annie Prince had a similar stats line, giving up seven hits and striking out one while walking two.
The only run of the game came on a throwing error by Community in the bottom of the second inning.
Abby Murrill and Abi Brown both 2-for-4 with on the night, while Alana Tate, Carlie Blanton and Taylar Wessner each singled as well.
