September 19, 2024


The Lady Canes celebrate a Zoie Shiflett home run.

Cartersville posted six runs in the top of the first inning Thursday night and added three more in the fourth inning for a 9-0 five-inning, Region 7-AAAA win at Cass.


The Lady Canes’ victory completed a three-game season sweep of the Lady Colonels.


Zoie Shiflett (3.2 IP, 0R, 2H, 0BB, 6K) and Presley Crabbe (1.1 IP, 0R, 0H, 0BB, 3K) combined in the circle for Cartersville to complete the shutout.


Shiflett also homered twice and drove in five runs.


Allana Williams (RBI) and Kinsey Woodard (double) produced two hits for the Lady Canes. Jordan Bishop hit a solo home run. Lakaiya Banks (double), Kennedy Crenshaw, Reece Dumas, Layne Callan (double, two RBI), and Taryn Bradley added one hit.


Lily Powell (0.1 IP, 6ER, 6H, 0BB, 1K) suffered the pitching loss for Cass. Emma Gibson (4.2 IP, 3ER, 5H, 3BB, 1K) pitched in relief for the Lady Colonels. 


Chloe Hill and Darianna Sosa had one hit each for Cass. 


The Lady Canes (17-4, 15-1) visit Carrollton on Monday for a non-region game and will host Woodland on Tuesday.


Cass (12-8, 10-6) hosts Hiram on Monday, visits Southeast Whitfield on Tuesday, and entertains Pace Academy for a non-region game on Wednesday.




WOODLAND 5, CEDARTOWN 4


Kamryn Smith and Bitsy Hartsfield hit back-to-back home runs Thursday night in the bottom of the fourth inning to give Woodland a 5-3 lead in an eventual 5-4 home win over Cedartown.


The Bulldogs led 3-0 in the early innings before the Lady Cats posted their five runs across the third and fourth innings. Cedartown scored a run in the top of the seventh and had a potential tying run on base, but Wildcats’ pitcher Gracie Korb shut down the Bulldogs’ threat with a flyout and a strikeout.


Korb (7 IP, 4R, 2ER, 5H, 7BB, 1K) picked up the pitching victory for Woodland by working all seven innings in the circle.


Smith (double, three-run home run) and Hartsfield (solo home run) led the Lady Cats’ offense with two hits. Mackenzie Araya (RBI) and Bailey Gerstner added one hit.


The loss dropped Cedartown to 16-9 overall and 11-7 in Region 7-AAAA.


Woodland (5-12, 5-11) plays at Cartersville on Tuesday.
