Jonesboro-Hodge got out to a quick 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning but Union Parish erupted for 9 runs in their half of the frame on the way to a 12-4 decision in girls softball play on Friday. The loss against the Division III opponent dropped the Lady Tigers overall record to 2-7 while Union Parish improved to 3-9 on the year.
The Lady Tigers got on top in the first following when Alaina Ashcraft stole home after she and K Aaron stroked two out singles and Sierra Bond walked to load the bases. JHHS added three more runs in the top of the second when S Dill, B Thompson and A Anderson all walked and Ashcraft hit a single.
