After slugging it out in a 20-19 8-inning game against Crittenden County Monday night, you can see where the Lyon County Lady Lyons might be a little leg-weary as they traveled to Smithland Tuesday night for another 5th District matchup, this one against Livingston Central.
7th grader Eden Campanella held the Lady Lyons to just one run as the Lady Cardinals picked up their 19th win of the season by pushing past Lyon County 8-1. Campanella allowed just five hits and struck out seven Lady Lyons in the game. She did not give up a walk in seven innings of work.
The Lady Cardinals scored two runs in each of the first, second, fourth, and fifth innings in building an 8-0 lead.
The Lady Lyons did not help their own cause any in the field. Lyon County was charged with five errors in the game.
Courtney Collins had two of the Lady Lyons’ five hits. She finished 2-3 with a run scored. Jenna Coursey, Lauren Davis, and Olivia Moore had one hit each for Lyon County.
Lilly Perry was tagged with the loss in the circle for the Lady Lyons. She went six innings, giving up 8 runs, only 5 of them earned, striking out 7 and walking 5.
The Lady Lyons are back in action Thursday when they host Trigg County at Lee S. Jones Park.
