Florence's softball team scored in every inning on Tuesday at Woodland Park but needed its biggest frames late to pull out a 17-11 victory. The Lady Huskies trailed 10-7 after four full innings but began the comeback with a two-run fifth. They followed that with a four-spot in the sixth to take a 13-10 lead. FHS tacked on four insurance runs in the seventh and then held the Lady Panthers to just one run in the bottom of the frame to seal the win.
After allowing three runs in each of the first three innings, the pitching was nails, only allowing two runs over the final four innings. The scoreless fifth and sixth were key to the come-from-behind victory.
Claire Bosley recorded three legs of the cycle at the plate, needing only a home run to complete it. She scored four times. Makala Miller had three singles, driving in two runs. Lilly Roe led everyone with five RBI. Trinity Villagrana and Kendra Steffenson scored three runs apiece.
Addison Dalton went the distance in the circle, earning the victory despite allowing 11 runs. Due to 15 errors, only three were earned. She allowed six hits, walked four, and struck out a dozen.
The Lady Huskies are 7-3-1 overall and 2-0 in the Tri-Peaks II league. They will host Cañon City on Thursday in the Bat Game. CCHS has won 12 of the last 14 meetings in the series, including the last nine consecutive.
