After finishing runner-up in several tournaments last year, including the Dothan Diamond Classic and the Class 4A state tournament, one of the themes for this year’s Geneva Panther softball team
The Panthers finished the job at one of those tournaments this year, capturing the 4th Annual Dothan Diamond Classic with a 5-1 win over Wicksburg in Saturday’s championship game at the Westgate Softball Complex.
Geneva rode the 1-2 pitching punch of Makaley Boswell and Katlyn Conner on Saturday. Included the semifinal win, the duo gave up only three hits and one run over 14 innings with 16 strikeouts. The one run allowed came with two outs in the seventh inning with a 5-0 lead. “It goes down to finding a way to get someone on base and executing, whether it being somebody that gets on by a walk or getting a bunt down or being aggressive on the bases,” Bell said.
Boswell also the scored the game’s second run in the third inning. Like she did in the first, she walked and stole second. This time, she moved to third on a sac bunt by Henderson and scored on a Conner ground out. Wicksburg, which had only one hit through six innings, ruined the shutout bid on Kylie Barnes’ two-out solo homer.
Skylar Frey was the winning pitcher, working four innings and allowing just three hits and two runs. She struck out three and walked one. In fact, the two pitchers allowed only two total hits – and both came late in the game. The other hit came in Enterprise’s seventh - a double by Kinley Hutto.
