OXFORD – After winning two close, low-scoring games earlier in the day, Houston Academy couldn’t pull off a high-scoring win in a battle of 2022 state softball champions during a
David Mundee Class 4A winners’ bracket final Friday evening at Choccolocco Park, falling to Orange Beach 10-8.
Ultimately, it was a two-run Orange Beach top of the seventh that proved to be the difference after Houston Academy had just scored three runs in the bottom of the sixth to tie the game at 8 all. Houston Academy finished with 12 hits, three from Adams and two each from Mary Suzan Aman, Ansleigh Smith and Tylaya Lingo. Smith drove in four runs and Lingo two.
HA’s Hodges went 6 2/3 innings in relief of Adams, striking out eight, but also allowing 10 hits and nine runs with eight earned. Orange Beach retook the lead in the top of the fourth. Favors singled to open the inning and two batters later, Henderson tripled to the right field corner, scoring Favors. Falyn Beebe followed with a RBI double off the centerfield fence, making it 4-2.
Lingo and Molly Magrino made it six straight hits in the inning with bunt singles, which loaded the bases with nobody out, but a force out at the plate and two strikeouts ended the inning.
