The Lady Broncos have not seen post-season play for a season or two, but they took care of business last week and shut out Memphis 16-0 to win the Bi-District trophy.
The ladies will continue in the playoffs with the Area round on Thurs., May 6, in Littlefield against Forsan. The first game will begin at 5 p.m. and the second game will follow. If a Game Three is needed it will be played at 5 p.m. on Fri., May 7, in Littlefield.
In the Memphis game, the ladies came on full-force and put up five quick runs in the first inning.
“We jumped on them early,” head coach Brad Elam said. “Five of the first six girls scored.”
After coming off a big first inning, the Lady Broncos stronger in the second and posted 11 huge runs on the scoreboard. Jentrye Bellar and Kaylin Hicks each knocked down a triple and Jayde Gribble joined in with a double in the game. Bellar, Hicks, and Madi Smith all put points on the board.
Smith was on the mound for the Lady Broncos and has proved herself over and over.
“Madi held Memphis hitless and pitched three perfect innings striking out six,” Elam said.
