PROCTORVILLE - It looks like "7" was the Fairland Dragons lucky number.

Trailing 3-1 in the sixth inning, Fairland scored seven runs and posted an 8-3 win over the Symmes Valley Vikings Tuesday in a non-league game.

"Symmes Valley played well. We were a little lackadaisical, but I don't want to take anything from them. They have a nice team," Fairland coach Roger Snyder said.

Cory McKnight walked, Adam Fuller singled and Trenton Moore walked to load the bases to begin the sixth inning rally.

Nolan Love walked to force in a run and Chris Barnett singled home Fuller. An out later, Trenton Moore scored on a bunt by Todd Maynard who reached safely on the play.

Michael Hill was safe on an error as a run scored, Josh Moore walked to force home another run and Fuller delivered a two-run single.

Symmes Valley took a 1-0 lead in the top of the fourth inning.
