Softball Recap: Billingsley Starts Season with Loss on the Road

Billingsley kicked off their season on the road on Thursday and hit a couple of potholes. They took a 10-7 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Isabella Mustangs. If the Bears were looking for revenge after losing 8-3 to them when the teams met back in April of 2024, then they'll just have to keep looking.

Claire Seamon made the most of her time at bat despite the final result and scored two runs and stole two bases while going 1-for-3. Jakayla Harris was another key player, scoring a run and stealing a base while getting on base in three of her four plate appearances.

The win (which was Isabella's third in a row) raised their record to 3-0.

Coming up, Billingsley will challenge Jemison at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. As for Isabella, they will square off against Horseshoe Bend at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Horseshoe Bend's pitching crew has only allowed 2.2 runs per game this season, so Isabella's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
