Curry's freshman shortstop was named the Class 4A tournament MVP.
Updated: May. 20, 2022, 6:45 p.m. |Ambrey Taylor is a lover and not a fighter.With the score knotted up at one run apiece and the Curry softball team seeking another burst of energy to its dugout after tying the game, Taylor laid down a searing triple on the 0-0 count to score the go-ahead run in the state title game.
“It’s unbelievable,” Curry coach Dave Lawson said. “I thought yesterday was the best feeling I ever felt and I questioned could it get better than that. I’m here to tell you, it can. Just an amazing feeling. I’m not at a loss for words often, but today I am.” The Panthers got the scoring started in the second inning, taking a 1-0 lead on a wild pitch that scored Emma Griffin, who led off the Inning with a single. An error put Emily Lamb on first, advancing Griffin to second, and a sacrifice bunt from Erin Curry set up the scoring play with Griffin moving to third base.
Howse forced a fly-out to end the fifth and allowed only three baserunners in the final two innings. A throwing error allowed the lead-off Geneva batter to reach in the sixth, but a sac bunt and two straight groundouts ended the inning. A lead-off single from the Panthers in the seventh was followed by a groundout and fielder’s choice, but another groundout the final opportunity for Geneva.
The Yellow Jackets evened the score in the bottom of the fourth, scoring on an RBI single from Jenna Madison, sending Kylee Trotter home from second. In the next inning, Curry seized momentum with the go-ahead run on the RBI triple.
