Two innings from leading second-seeded LaRue County into the 18th District Softball Tournament final, Brigitte Skaggs lost her release point.

After dominating most of Tuesday night’s semifinal, the sophomore pitcher couldn’t find the strike zone and here came third-seeded Hart County storming back from a four-run deficit.

With the bases loaded in the top of the sixth, coach Aaron Howell called upon senior Brittany Enlow to close the game out and the crafty veteran ended it.

 The homestanding LaRue County High School Lady Hawks whipped John Hardin’s Lady Bulldogs 13-2 in five innings Thursday.

In their last home game of the regular season, the Ladies avenged an earlier loss (5-6) to John Hardin and broke a four-game losing streak. The five-inning game was a nice sendoff for the team’s three seniors.
