Lady Aggies Strike Out Cancer While Striking Out Pace 14-4
March 23, 2013
The Tate Lady Aggies held on to their district lead Friday night in their annual Strike Out Cancer game in front of a mostly pink crowd.
The Lady Aggies entered Friday night’s game in first place in District 1-6A. They easily beat second place Pace, 14-4. Hitters for Tate included Kaylan Rowell with a two run triple and two run double from Heather Thomason. Casey McCracken had a two-run homer on a line drive to center. Rachel Dunsford was 4-for-4 with three runs, and Lauren Brennan was 1-1 with one RBI.
The Lady Aggies are now 16-3 overall and still hold a perfect 12-0 record in the district.
The Strike Out Cancer game raised about $6,000 for cancer awareness.
