After region game, remaining three games promise to be tough

It was expected that the East Coweta Lady Indians will breeze through their Region 2-7A contest at Pebblebrook with the Lady Falcons played Tuesday afternoon in Mableton.
That is what happened as the Lady Indians scored runs in the first three innings as Ansley Gunter hit two home runs to lead the way to a 21-0 blitzkrieg over the Lady Falcons.
The Lady Indians will take a 10-0, 2-0 record into an arduous week with three games against
of reathree teams who spent the final weekend of October last year in Columbus at the Elite Eight state tournament.
First in the trio will be longtime nemesis Whitewater who come to Sharpsburg, for a non-region tilt beginning at 7:00 weather permitting. UPDATE: Game rained out. New date is Wednesday September 20.
Meanwhile, Lambert and Chapel Hill.will be on the EC docket on Friday at Home Plate in Peachtree City with times of 4:30 and 7:30 respectively.
Whitewater
Those two teams will face each other in between the EC games.
Before getting a look at the three challenges that lie ahead, the Tuesday contest was over almost immediately.
An error allowed Kenadie Cooper to reach and a walk to Katie Taylor brought Olivia Cook to the plate and she responded with a run scoring triple.
A sacrifice fly by Ansley Dufffey not only scored Cook but an error allowed her to reach base as well.
A single by Gunter allowed Duffey to score and and two more runs would later come home to give EC a 6-0 cushion.
A 10-run second inning put the game well out of reach as Gunter had a two-run shot and a a solo shot in the frame while Madison Lecuona had two run single.
Five more runs came across in the top of the third for the final margin as Kylie Ferguson , who tossed a four-hitter against Newnan in a 4-0 junior varsity win, retired Pebblebrook in order for her first varsity win.
As for what's ahead...
So far, the Whitewater Lady Wildcats enter the Wednesday evening game with a 10-3 overall mark and have a 5-0 record in Region 3-AAAAA after a win over Griffin.
The Lady Wildcats were one of the teams on the 2016 EC
schedule that ended their season at the Elite Eight state tournament in Columbus. Participating in the 5A tourenament, Whitewater was eliminated by Starr's Mill.
Lambert
Under head coach Brooks Underwood, the Lambert Lady Longhorns enter the game with a 7-5 record after losses to South and West Forsyth.
In 2016, Lambert finshed 25-5 and participated in the Elie Eight tournament where they lost twice.
Buford and Chapel Hill are the only common opponents for East Coweta on the schedule.
The Longhorns return players at almost every position on the field including senior pitcher Kassidy Krupit who was the Forsyth County Pitcher-of-the-Year.
Chapel Hill
The Chapel Hill Lady Panthers have always given the Lady Indians a contest or two and will bring in a 4-4 record to the Friday night games.
Chapel Hill is coming off of an 11-4 win over West Forsyth in a game played on August 26.
In that game, the Lady Panthers scored five runs in the fifth and seventh innings.
The program seems to like the Sikes family and the current version didn't disappoint as Savannah Sikes was 2-for-3 in the game with three runs scored and three RBIs while pitcher Kira Morgan scattered seven hits over seven frames.
Last year, head coach Mickey Harper led the Lady Panthers to a 26-11 record and played in the AAAA Elite Eight tournament where they were eliminated by Marist.

EC opens softball season with wins over Lassiter and Hillgrove

(File photo)Kelley Lynch had a successful Friday night
with a three-run home run in East Coweta's 13-2 six-inning win
over Lassiter and toss a one-hit, 14 strikeout performance in a
3-0 win over Hillgrove. 
POWDER SPRINGS-The last time the East Coweta Lady Indians faced the Lassiter Lady Trojans last October in the second round of the 2016 Elite Eight 7A State Tournament in Columbus.
In that game, the Lady Trojans came back from a 3-1 deficit to come away with a 4-3 extra inning win and force the Lady Indians to play a game that evening.
Turn the page to Friday night and the Lady Indians got a measure of revenge as they opened the 2017 softball season with a 13-2 six-inning win over the Lady Trojans at the Lassiter field.
The Lady Indians were not done for the evening recording wins at Lassiter as they scored all of their runs in the bottom of the sixth inning to defeat the Hillgrove Lady Hawks 3-0 in a game that saw Kelley Lynch toss a one-hitter.
In the opening game, EC took command early as Olivia Davis reached on a one out single in the top of the first inning, Lynch reached on a walk and Ashlynn Gunter drilled a shot over the left field fence for a three-run home run.
The Lady Trojans scored single runs in the bottom of the first and second innings but the Lady Indians responded with five-run frames in the fifth and the sixth inning and the Lady Trojans were unable to recover.
In the top of the fifth inning, Lilly Agan walked and moved to second on an error that allowed Davis to reach and after Lynch reached on a walk to load the bases, Gunter singled to right to bring Agan home to give EC a 4-2 lead.
Far from done, Wright sliced a 2-1 offering along the right field line for a triple and allowing the bases to clear to increase the lead to 7-2.
Wright scored the final run of the frame when Caison Byars delivered a two-out single left field.
In the top of the sixth inning, the Lady Indians weren’t done as Agan reached on a bunt single and Davis followed by reaching on a walk ahead of Lynch who drilled a 2-0 pitch over the left field fence for a three-run home run.
Gunter followed with a walk and advanced to third as Wright followed with a double and Olivia Cook narrowly missed her first varsity hit and home run with a shot to left field added to the run total as highlights were a three-run home run by Lynch and a sacrifice fly hit by Olivia Cook that was hit in front of the left field wall.
Cook had to settle for a sacrifice fly as Gunter came home from third and the final run of the frame came from another Gunter as Ansley delivered a single that scored Wright for the final run of the game an RBI single by Gunter's sister Ansley who recorded her first varsity hit and RBI.
Rachel Vaughan pitched the first five innings for the Lady Indians allowing six hits while Wright retired the side in order in the sixth.
Offensively, Agan, Ashlynn Gunter, Wright and Byars each recorded two hits in the game.
In the game against Hillgrove, Lynch dominated the first two batters of the game with strikeouts before walking the next two and getting the third out with a strikeout.
This would be a pattern for Lynch who surrendered a bunt single the Lady Hawks’ Savannah Stewart in the top of the third inning before retiring the next 12 batters before surrendering a walk in the top of the seventh inning.
Meanwhile, the Lady Indians had few opportunities to get on the scoreboard as well as Chandler Greene who solid defense by her teammates to keep the game scoreless.
However, the defense let her down in the bottom of the sixth inning as Agan reached on a walk, stole second and reached third on a wild pitch before Davis hit a ground ball that was mishandled in the infield and thrown past first base for an error.
The error allowed Agan to score from third and Davis eventually stole second and score on a single by Lynch.
After Gunter reached on a fielder’s choice and advanced on a wild pitch by Greene, Wright followed with a single to right that scored Gunter with the final tally of the contest.
In the final frame, Lynch opened with a walk but finished the game with a pair of strikeouts to give her 14 for the evening and a popfly to Madison Lecuona to end a game in which Lynch had more hits than her opponent.
The next game for the Lady Indians will be Wednesday August 16 at home against the Northgate Lady Vikings in a 6:00 game that is part of the Georgia Dugout Club Tournament.
