Lyons, GA. – August 14, 2024 | Coach Hayne Brant

Casey Cantwell’s dominant performance in the circle powered the Toombs County Lady Dawgs Softball team to a 7-1 region victory over the Swainsoboro Tigers on Thursday. Cantwell was in control throughout the game, striking out 10 batters while allowing just four hits and one run over seven innings, with only two walks.

The Bulldogs wasted no time getting on the scoreboard, scoring two runs in the top of the first inning. Aniston Powell doubled, driving in a run, followed by a single from Cyleigh Ennis that added another. Ennis continued to make her presence felt, extending the Bulldogs’ lead to 3-0 with a ground out in the top of the third inning.

Ennis was a key contributor in the lineup, finishing the day 2-for-3 with two RBIs. Nora Grace Mercer also had an impact on the basepaths, stealing two bases and putting pressure on the Lady Tigers’ defense.

With this win, the Bulldogs continue their strong start to the season, moving to 4-0 overall and 2-0 in region play. They will look to keep the momentum going in their next two games against South Effingham and Jeff Davis on Saturday.
