Lyons, GA. – September 25 2024 | Coach Hayne Brant

———-

Casey Cantwell was unstoppable in the circle on Tuesday, striking out 10 batters and leading the Toombs County Lady Dawgs to an 8-0 victory over the Swainsboro Lady Tigers in another region contest. Cantwell pitched six innings, surrendering only one hit and no runs while walking just one batter.

The Lady Dawgs broke the game open in the top of the fourth inning, scoring two runs off an error and another run when Nora Grace Mercer singled. That gave Toombs County a comfortable lead, and they never looked back.

The Lady Dawgs’ offense was persistent throughout the night, taking advantage of five walks and getting key hits when needed.

Brinley Miller led Toombs County with two hits in three at-bats, while Shay Stringer, Casey Cantwell, AJ Jarriel, and Aniston Powell each drove in a run. Defensively, the Lady Dawgs were flawless, not committing a single error.

Next up for the Lady Dawgs is the West Laurens Raiders in West Laurens on Wednesday. Both JV and Varsity teams will be in action with the JV slated to start at 4 PM and Varsity to play at 6 PM.
