After scoring in the third inning and cutting Statesboro's lead to 8-3, Portal's Faith Oglesby, right, urges teammate Becky Channel to keep the rally going. Portal finished out the inning by taking a 9-8 lead on the way to a 15-14 victory.
PORTAL — In last week’s season opener, Portal let a three-run lead get away in the bottom of the seventh inning against Statesboro. Leading their cross-county rivals by a single run on Tuesday evening, the Lady Panthers were up to the challenge. Third baseman Kenya Huff stopped a pair of hot shots for the first two outs of the final frame and Keri Carter closed out a seesaw 15-14 victory.
