“Oh, what a night for my Lady Redhounds,” Stidham said. “Just trusting the process, riding the momentum we have had coming into district. Just such a great night all around.
“Macie Santos was on a mission tonight on the mound,” she added. “She struck out 13 batters. Lydia King on fire, driving in four runs, Chloe Bays with a grand slam. Abbie Mott, Sawyer Stamper, and Izzy Walker each collected two hits on the night, and Mikaila Hopkins, Apple Terrell, and Kaili Sanders each had a hit each. We just came to play tonight! I cannot be more proud of their drive to win tonight, the atmosphere, everything. Punched their ticket, and now to the championship. Let’s Go Lady Redhounds.”
