CORBIN — Corbin hung tough, but a two-inning rally from Madison Southern proved to be the difference Saturday.

On the mound, Bret Estep kept Corbin within striking distance early, tossing four innings and striking out seven while allowing two runs. Madison Southern, capitalized after his exit, scoring three runs to take control.
Easton Hendrickson and Carson Taylor combined in relief to finish the game for the Redhounds with Taylor providing 2.2 innings of scoreless work.
