It may have taken eight innings to finish the job, but Woodward Academy ultimately got the result they hoped for on Thursday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against the Lovett Lions, sneaking past 9-8. The War Eagles' hitters stepped up their game for this one, as that was the most runs they've scored all season.
Cymone Woodfaulk spent all eight innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and five unearned) runs on seven hits and racked up eight Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't tossed less than seven strikeouts in three consecutive appearances.
On the hitting side, the team relied heavily on Maya Hatch, who went a perfect 3-for-3 with three runs and one double. That double was her first of the season. Another player making a difference was Wren Wolski, who went 2-for-3 with two RBI and one double.
Woodward Academy's first win this season bumped their record up to 1-5.
