The general consensus of opinion was the ballyhooed contest between Quitman, the #1 ranked team in Division V among “non-select” schools and Calvary Baptist, top ranked in Division III among “select” schools was that the game would go right down to the end. 

In all reality, it was over after the third pitch. 

That was when Ramsey Walker drove a line shot over the right field fence, scoring D.J. Lynch who had singled on the second pitch of the contest and giving Calvary a 2-0 lead that they never relinquished in the 3-1 victory over the Lady Wolverines.

With the win, Calvary remains unbeaten, running their season opening winning streak to 14 staight games. Quitman, which had started the season by winning their first 12 has now lost two in a row and sits at 12-2 on the year.

It was known that runs would be a premium and both Calvary starter and winning pitcher Kynzee Anderson and Quitman’s, Cali Deal proved that to be a valid point as both allowed only a run in the fifth inning the rest of the way., Anderson would end up striking out 14 batters while Deal K’d 12 in her first loss of the year. 

The run that both Calvary and Quitman scored in the fifth came off home runs. For Calvary it was Walker hitting a second, the first time in Cali Deal’s tremendous high school career that a player has taken her deep twice in one game. Quitman also went “yard” when Madison Chaplin stroked a shot to right field to circle the bases and bring Quitman closer.

Quitman had a couple of opportunities to creep closer but each time the runner in scoring position was left stranded. In the third inning Maggie Guyotte stroked a two out double only to have Deal smash a line shot that was snared by the Calvary third sacker. In the fourth, Hallie Kate Pullig opened with a walk followed by Kinsley Ponder hitting a single to give Quitman two on and nobody out. A popout to first and two strikeouts later that was as far as they got.

Claiborne Christian 19 Weston 0: The visiting Lady Crusadors stepped off the bus swinging a hot stick, scoring seven runs in the top of the first and adding three more in the second. The CC put up a 9 spot in the fifth to put the game away. Meanwhile Weston was only able to manage a pair of singles each by Molly Beaufouef and Jaylin Williams. The loss dropped the Lady Wolves to 2-8 on the year while Claiborne Christian, ranked #5 in the “select schools” Division V ranking, improved to 3-3 on the year.
