Elsa out — still 3-0 for Lady Ads
Though missing what many say is the best high school softball player in the state for its last three games of the regular season (junior shortstop Elsa Morrison), Farragut nonetheless won all three heading into this week’s District 4-4A Tournament at FHS’s Bellamy Field (see bracket on page 2B).
“But on the flip side, we’ve won three games without her in the lineup,” FHS head coach Nick Green said.
Farragut (21-9) ended the regular season with a 3-0 home win versus Lakeway Christian Academy (five-inning game) in a rain-shortened Region II Challenge Saturday, April 29, while ending as No. 3 in 4-4A.
Winning pitcher Emma MacTavish went the distance, allowing no runs, two hits and no walks with 11 strikeouts. Hailey Nichols had two hits and one RBI, while catcher Rylee Raby added a pair of hits. Amelia Dorset singled.
