It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Suwannee can now relate to. They fell just short of the Wakulla War Eagles by a score of 3-1 on Thursday. The Bulldogs were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the War Eagles apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in April of 2015.
Suwannee saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Maylee Gabey, who went 1-for-3 with one run.

That patch can't be blamed on the team's pitching effort, having only surrendered 3.8 runs on average over those games. As for Wakulla, the victory made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 19-4-1.
Suwannee and Wakulla are set to take part in some playoff action in their next matches. The Bulldogs will challenge West Nassau at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. The Warriors' pitching crew has only allowed 2.4 runs per game this season, so Suwannee's hitters will have their work cut out for them.
