Lonoke waltzed into their contest on Friday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Quitman Bulldogs, sneaking past 4-2. Those four runs were actually the fewest the Jackrabbits have put up all season, but given the result they're probably not too concerned.

Kendra Terry spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered just two earned runs on six hits and racked up six Ks.

At the plate, the team relied heavily on Shaniya Jackson, who went 1-for-2 with three RBI, one stolen base, and one double. She has been hot recently, having posted at least one stolen base the last three times she's played. Another player making a difference was Coraline Spires, who went 2-for-3 with one stolen base and one run.

Lonoke's win bumped their record up to 10-1. As for Quitman, they have been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 7-12 record this season.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Lonoke will head out to challenge Cabot at 5:00 p.m. on Monday. The Panthers' pitching crew has only allowed 3.8 runs per game this season, so the Jackrabbits' hitters will have their work cut out for them. As for Quitman, they will face off against Morrilton at 4:30 p.m. on Monday.
