The last and only other time BCHS traveled to Harlem for the softball playoffs was 2012. Bleckley was swept that day. Unfortunately, Wednesday’s return trip didn’t turn out much better.
A six-run top of the fourth erased the Lady Dogs 4-0 lead in game one. Harlem though scored five more in the home half. Trailing 10-6 in the seventh, BC loaded the bases with one out but could only score once in losing 10-7. Riley Edge went 3 for 4 with 2 RBI. Macey Haley was 1 for 2 with a double and 3 RBI. Landa Dominy went 1 for 2 with 1 RBI. Abbey Sims went 1 for 2.
Riley Edge beat the ball to second base.
Trailing 4-0 in the bottom of the second of game two, a two on, no out opportunity produced no runs. Bleckley had a runner at second with one out in the third but couldn’t score. Errors contributed to three Harlem runs in the fifth. Edge had a two-out double in the home half that went for naught as the season ended 8-0.
Abbey Sims tags out a Harlem player before she can score.
The Lady Royals had more errors (five) than hits (two.) They finish the season with a 22-9 record.
