The Elizabethton Lady Cyclones took to the field in Bluff City looking to earn another shot at a regional berth and possibly a home sectional but first things first.
In the opening game of the 2022 District 1 Class AAA softball tournament being played at Sullivan East, the Lady Cyclones gave their pitching staff all the runs they needed as Elizabethton took a 2-0 win over the Volunteer Lady Falcons.
Madisun Pritchard and Mollie Johnson combined on a no-hitter for Coach Ken Hardin’s Lady Cyclones. The game wasn’t a walk in the park as the Lady Cyclones still had to manage to overcome a very good Volunteer pitcher in Abby Fisher who struck out 12 Elizabethton batters and walked none.
The Lady Cyclones picked up nine hits in the contest led by Pritchard who helped her own cause with a 3-for-3 showing at the plate. Maely Ingram added a 2-for-4 performance. Maddie O’Quinn, Kenidy Harris, Johnson, and Hannah Morgan collected one hit apiece.
Pritchard sruck out six and walked none in six and two-thirds of an inning.
