ECI Softball Wins Region Championship

By Justin Gray

ECI SOFTBALL SENIORS L TO R: KALYAN LAMB, ALLY TAYLOR, LILY ROBERTSON, SHAYLA STEPHENSON, CHARLA CLIFTON, KELSEY HARPER, SULLEE BODDIFORD, KARLEY OLLIFF

The ECI Softball team has been on a roll for quite sometime now and haven't lost in forever it seems. This week that winning paid off as they won the region championship!

This is not new to the Lady Dawgs as they have owned this region winning three of the last four region titles and seven of the last nine. This past week they also had Senior night for one of the most successful Senior groups you will find.

In four years, they’ve won 99 games and have only lost 23. They’ve made it deep in the playoffs every year and the goal is to finish it this year. They played Jenkins County for Senior Night and of course they had to win it in the only fashion they knew how with the final score being 12-0. They also played a tough Eagle’s Landing Christian Academy and defeated them 2-1.

They have two games left on the schedule to finish off this outstanding season. The Lady Dawgs have won eleven in a row and they aren’t stopping now. I am excited to cover this team and see what they can do throughout these last two games and the playoffs. They go to Tattnall Square Academy on Tuesday and play South Effingham at home on Thursday.
