Despite their 6-5 loss to district rival Cameron on Monday night, the Lady Tigers are still riding high from their Jarrell Tournament win last weekend.
Last Monday’s District 19-3A opener, the Rockdale Lady Tigers lost to C.H. Yoe.
Brande Breithaupt took the loss for the Lady Tigers. She lasted six and a third innings, allowing 15 hits and six runs while striking out two.
Rockdale racked up 12 hits. Jena Locklin and Payton Miller all managed multiple hits for the Lady Tigers. Locklin went 3-for-4 at the plate to lead the team in hits and made seven plays in the field.
“They just outplayed us at the end,” Coach Meghann Infantino said. “We played a good defensive game, but Cameron just had more energy than we did and it showed.”
Rockdale plays again in the Taylor Tournament Thursday through Saturday.
“The goal is to make it to the playoffs,” said Coach Meghann Infantino. “I feel like we’re playing with a lot of fight and, if we keep pushing at rate we are right now, I know we’ll get there.”
