OXFORD – After a long day of softball, the Wicksburg Panthers came up short of their ultimate goal, falling in the AHSAA Class 2A State Championship to the Hatton Hornets,
Wicksburg opened the day with a 1-0 loss to Hatton but beat J.U. Blacksher 4-3 to reach the finals then forced a second championship game by beating the Hornets 14-6.“It has been a heck of a ride,” Wicksburg head coach Josh Cox said. “I told people all year that I have never been a part of a softball team that had this much talent 1 through 18. I don’t mean 1 through 9. This is the hardest team I’ve ever had to make a lineup for.
“This experience goes a long way. The girls seeing this, they are going to want to get back. It is a program-building experience.” Ella Grace Kelly led off with a single and Kelsey Ellenburg walked before Megan Cochran singled to drive in Kelley. After courtesy-runner Breely Taylor stole second, Chloe Joyner hit a grounder that was misplayed by the shortstop, allowing Ellenburg to score.
Three straight hits opened the inning with the final hit scoring a run. An error in the centerfield on the hit allowed a second run to come home. A Kailyn Qualls RBI double made it 6-4. Bradyn Mitchell followed with a high fly ball in short right that was missed by the second baseman for another run, putting runners at the corner. Mallie Yarbrough’s sacrifice fly made it 7-4.Wicksburg scored one in both the fourth and fifth only to see Hatton score two in the bottom half of both innings to make it 11-6.
