SOUTH POINT — Maybe the South Point Lady Pointers need to look into becoming financial investors.
The Lady Pointers had just four hits but scored six runs in a 6-2 win over the Minford Lady Falcons on Thursday.
“We played great defense and got the hits when we needed against a very good Minford team,” said South Point coach Tanner Heaberlin.
“Kaitlyn Brown pitched another great game and let her defense play behind her.”
South Point took a 1-0 lead in the third when Brown walked and Abbey Winkler reached on an error.
Minford tied the game in the fourth on a home run by Jordyn Pennington, but the Lady Pointers got two in the fifth.
Brown walked and Winkler had an RBI double. Winkler scored after a wild pitch and passed ball.
The Lady Pointers got three runs in the sixth.
Haley Rawlins was safe on an error, Sylvia Griffith was hit by a pitch and Andi Kleinman had a two-run double. Hannah Carey singled in a run and later scored on a wild pitch.
