McMinn Central had to settle for second on Monday, but Lauren Peterson sure wasn't going down easily. Peterson was dialed in as she struck out seven batters over seven innings while giving up just two earned runs off four hits (and not a single walk). She was up against Sweetwater and has quite the history against that squad, as she also had a great game the last time she faced them back in April of 2024. Peterson has been nothing but reliable on the mound: she hasn't given up more than one walk in three consecutive appearances.
Coming up, Peterson and McMinn Central will be playing at home against Bradley Central at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. McMinn Central has some work to do to even out the 2-7 series between these two since April of 2015, but a win here would be a good start.
