MCHS Varsity Softball vs Clarke – Bull Run District Tournament Finals
After finishing in first place for the regular season, Madison captured the Bull Run District Tournament Championship tonight, defeating Clarke 2-0. The game was scoreless until the fourth inning when Sam Atwell led off the inning with a slap single, and with two outs, Chandler Gentry drove Atwell in to give Madison a 1-0 lead. Madison scored again in the fifth when Cagney Shifflett hit the first pitch of the inning over the center field fence for a solo home run. Madison will host the Region B quarter final game on Monday evening, and will play Riverheads at 7:00pm at Waverly Yowell field.
Home run smile 🙂
A couple of amazing catches tonight by Madison. Kaitlin Aylor made an over-the-back catch in foul territory behind third base. And Sam Atwell slipped and fell going for a fly ball in center field, and was able to get her feet under her enough to dive and make the catch. I think I like the reaction below better than the catch photo 🙂
And Bull Run District Honors were as follows:
Bull Run District First Team: Kaitlin Aylor, Chandler Gentry, and Lauren Seale. Seale was also Bull Run District Pitcher of the Year. Jesse Yowell was named Bull Run District Coach of the Year.
Bull Run District Second Team: Mariann Smith, Sam Atwell, Raegan Clatterbaugh, and Taylor Yowell.
