PREP ROUNDUP: Holly Pond knocks off Boaz 10-8
Mar. 18—Madyson Rickman slugged two home runs, Brooke Hill notched the go-ahead base hit in the top of the seventh inning, and EmmaRay Spitzer shut the door on Holly Pond's 10-8 road victory over Boaz on Thursday night.
The teams went back and forth throughout the contest, with the Pirates tying things up at 8-all in the bottom of the sixth inning.
But Hill put the Broncos in front for good in the seventh following a two-run single — the clutch hit scored Rickman and Spitzer, both of whom singled earlier in the frame — and Spitzer pitched around a two-out walk in the bottom half of the inning to secure the win.
Rickman paved the way offensively with four hits and five RBIs, while Samantha Giles and Molly Neal each recorded three hits and an RBI. Kaylee Stallings (RBI) had two doubles, and Hill (two RBIs), Spitzer and Addison Armstrong rounded out the offensive contributions with a hit apiece.
