HARLAN \u2014 The South Laurel High School Fastpitch program has a new career home run leader after sophomore Emmie Rice connected with her 25th career home run, surpassing former Lady Cardinal Emily Gaines\u2019 total of 24, during Friday\u2019s 7-2 win over Harlan County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rice finished with a home run, three RBI and one run scored as South Laurel\u2019s lead improved to 3-0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThat was a hard fought win against a much-improved Harlan County team,\u201d South Laurel coach Carly Mink said. \u201cAudrey Likins gave us six strong innings and Kenzie was able to close it out for us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCongratulations to Emmie Rice for breaking a record that has stood since 2010 and held by Kentucky Miss Softball Emily Gaines,\u201d she added. \u201cVery impressive and says a lot about her ability to be able to achieve this as a sophomore. We are very proud of her. Good team win tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bailey Frazier finished with two hits and a run scored while Morgan Jackson, Kenzie Williams, Ryleigh Bretz, and Skye Lawson each delivered run-scoring hits in the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audrey Likins tossed six innings, allowing four hits and two earned runs while striking out two batters. Williams pitched a scoreless and hitless inning while striking out three batters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
