4A AREA 15 CHAMPS

As Elkmont was enjoying a beautiful spring day yesterday, the 4A Area 15 softball tournament was being played out on the Hilltop.  The finals were set Thursday as the Elkmont Lady Devils defeated East Lawrence, 7-6.  

To open up the second day of the area tourney, Brooks played West Limestone.  The Lady Wildcats beat Brooks to advance to the semi-finals against East Lawrence.  Our neighbors across the way won that game as well to set up a Limestone County final. 

Elkmont vs West Limestone:
Autumn Davis pitched a complete game with 26 first pitch strikes and 8 strikeouts. The defense held their errors to one to help support Autumn's effort. Elkmont scored every inning except the fifth and slammed the door shut with a 4 run inning the sixth. Final score: Elkmont 12, West Limestone 4.

The Lady Devils batting highlights:
Dakota McCurley - 2 hits, 2 RBIs
Autumn Davis      - 2 hits, 2 RBIs
Brandi Bentley     - 1 home run, 3 RBIs
