Picayune 6   Moss Point 1

The Lady Tide rebounded from a loss to the Moss Point Lady Tigers earlier this week to take

a 6-1 victory.   The Lady Tigers were the 5th ranked team in the preseason poll released by

The Clarion Ledger.

The two teams held each other scoreless in the 1st inning.  Moss Point scratched out one run in

the second, but Picayune answered with a run of their own. Cassie Rabion led off the inning

with a double.  Deawn Breland entered as a courtesy runner for Rabion and scored on a triple

by Malissa Fowler. The next three batters went down in order to end the inning, but the Picayune

defense stepped it up to shut down the Moss Point Tigers the remainder of the game.

Picayune continued their scoring as Amanda Feeley led off the fourth with a solo bomb over the

right centerfield fence. With one out in the fifth Allison Bynum singled and was followed by a

double off the bat of pinch hitter Kellye Bolar setting up runners at 2nd and 3rd. Courntney

Dickens then hit a sacrifice fly to score Bynum. Krystal Penton singled to score Bolar.   Breonne

Spikes launched a triple to score Penton and Spikes later scored on a single by Amanda Feeley.

The Lady Tide will continue play in the Poplarville Tournament meeting the host Lady Hornets

of Poplarville at 9:00 and West Marion at  12:00 noon on Saturday  in Poplarville.
