Lady Patriots overwhelm Lawrenceburg, 9-1

By Vivian Risch-

Union County scored two runs in the first inning at Lawrenceburg and continued to put runs on the scoreboard every other inning. Two runs in the third and two runs in the fifth put UC up, 6-0, and they never looked back.

The Lady Tigers got on the scoreboard just before the Lady Patriots put the icing on the cake with three runs in the sixth inning to seal a 9-1 win on the road.

Winning pitcher Chloe Greene went the distance on the mound, striking out 14,   issued no walks, and gave up one run on six hits.

Third baseman Sophia Knock went 2-for-4 at the plate, including a double and  home run to go with three RBI and scored four runs.

Shelby Hill, went 3-for-4 at the plate including a double and one RBI.
