The home team had come away the winner the last five times George County and East Central had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Rebels walked away with a 4-1 victory over the Hornets on Tuesday. Four seems to be a good number for the Rebels as the team scooped up a win with the same number of runs in their previous game.
Addison Davis spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered only one earned run on four hits and racked up nine Ks. She has been consistent recently: she hasn't given up more than one earned run any time she's pitched this season.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Kyleigh Howell, who went 1-for-4 with one home run.
