MOULTRIE —
MOULTRIE — The Colquitt County C.A. Gray and junior varsity softball teams took a pair of games from Cook on Tuesday in Adel.
The Gray team had little trouble, winning 9-1 behind the pitching of Cheyenne Tillman, who gave up just one hit and one unearned run.
Chazmin Singletary and Lindsey Oxley led Colquitt County with two hits each. Keri Owens and Kacie Ricks each had triples and Alex Gibbs and Hayli Spradley each had singles.
The victory raises the Gray team’s record to 4-5.
The junior varsity team completed the sweep by rallying for three runs in the bottom of the fifth inning to take a 6-5 victory.
Cook had scored three runs in the top of the inning to take 5-3 lead, but Amie Frazier’s single to left drove in the game-winning run in the bottom of the inning.
Frazier and Kayla Bynum each had two hits in the game for the Lady Packers.
Savannah Morgan, Makayli Crawford and Ansleigh Lindsey each had one hit.
“We came back, fought hard and won,” Colquitt County Coach Chance Pitts said.
Ricks did the pitching.
The Colquitt County Gray and junior varsity teams will play next on Thursday when they travel to Lowndes.
The Colquitt County middle school softball team split a pair of games with Lowndes at Packer Park on Tuesday.
Colquitt won the opener 12-10, but fell in the second 6-5 in a game shortened to two innings because of the time rule.
