The Lady Broncos added to their winning record (13-4,1-0) over the break with wins over Perryton and River Road. The ladies defeated Perryton last Thursday at 7-5.
According to head coach Gary Jack, the ladies were ahead 7-0 at one point in the game. “We were ahead 7-0 at one time, and I thought we would go ahead and end it in five innings,” he said. “But they were able to come back on us.”
Jack went on to say that the Lady Broncos played well enough to win, but felt they could tell they had been off a few days.
Danielle Ford hit her third over-the-fence home run in a row that helped the ladies to their win. Defensively, the ladies stayed focused.
“Our infield played pretty solid,” Jack said. “Trevela Dronzek, Caitlyn Christopher, and Brandi Mays did a good job behind Danielle’s pitching. And Dominique Mason did a good job at catcher.”
The ladies defeated River Road 12-8 on Friday.
“We were behind at first,” Jack said. “But our hitting was better and that helped us get the win. We trailed most of the game, and it was 7-8 late in the game, and we were able to fight through it and get the win. Jency Burton came in to pitch for us in the second inning and did a good job getting the win.”
Ford had yet another over-the-fence home run and Dronzek, Christopher, and Mays added doubles with hits to the fence.
“We were able to make some things happen at the end,” Jack said. “Emily Clark played well for us as did several other players. We’ll keep working and get a little better.”
The Lady Broncos will continue their district schedule as they travel to McLean Friday, March 26, beginning at 4:00 p.m.
