MCHS Varsity Softball vs Central Woodstock-Bull Run District Tourney Semi Final
Madison held the lead, through light rain and thunder, up until the top of the sixth inning when Central went ahead 3-2. Central kept that lead into the bottom of the seventh. With one out, Madison senior Anna Kelliher singled. Abby Erb came in to run for her. Sam Atwell put down a nice sacrifice bunt moving Abby to second, and eventually third. Freshman Raegan Clatterbaugh worked the count to full and then walked, and stole second. With 2 outs and an 0-2 count, sophomore Kaitlin Aylor hit her second double of the night, scoring Erb and Clatterbaugh, and giving Madison the win.
Madison advances to the Bull Run District Tournament finals and will play at Clarke tomorrow night. UPDATE: Madison lost to Clarke in the finals, and according to this link, Madison holds the #3 seed in Division 1, Region B and will host William Campbell on Monday night at 6:00pm.
