Greenville’s freshman left-hander Rachael Cook overcame windy conditions to blank Bryan Adams on four hits. Cook did not walk a batter and struck out six.

Trinity Ashmore paced Greenville at the plate with two hits. Rachael Cook, Danielle Cook and Amber Moore also ripped hits.

Lakeview Centennial scored twice in the third inning to pull out the victory over Greenville.

Sam Cobb led the victors at the plate with a double and a home run.

Ashmore, Shelby Doederlein, Katie Threndyl, Kayla Mayes and Amber Leonard all managed hits for Greenville.
