Emily Sanders sets to throw from third base.

The Lady Royals took a break from region play, traveling to McRae to take on Telfair County. Last year, BCHS lost their season opener to the Lady Trojans on a walkoff. Some big offensive innings ensured history wouldn’t repeat itself Thursday.

Bailey Odom makes a catch in right field.

Tied 2-2 in the second, Abbey Sims three-run home run capped a five-run second. Telfair answered with four in the home half. Sims second home run of the game, a two-run shot in the sixth, broke a 7-7 tie. Landa Dominy followed with a solo shot, the first back to back homers since last year’s game in McRae.

Landa Dominy is all smiles after homering in the sixth inning.

Bleckley went on to win 13-8. Sims finished 2 for 5 with 5 RBI. Dominy finished 2 for 4 with a double. Riley Edge went 3 for 5 with an RBI double. E’Lisia Vickers was 3 for 4. Emily Sanders went 2 for 4 with 1 RBI. Caroline Thrower was 2 for 5 with two doubles and 3 RBI.

Clara Rickerson would get under the tag at third base.
