HUNTSVILLE COMES FROM BEHIND TO DEFEAT CUBETTES 7-6

The Brenham Cubette Softball Team suffered a tough loss in district play this (Tuesday) afternoon to the Huntsville Lady Hornets, 7-6.

In the bottom of the first inning, Huntsville took advantage of three Cubette errors to score three runs and take a 3-1 lead.

Brenham re-took the lead with three runs in the top of the third inning. Maurer reached on a one-out double, and then road home on a two-run homer by Sarah Mabie. Later in the inning, McKenzie Tiemann was hit by a pitch, stole second, and then scored on an RBI single by Antkowiak to give the Cubettes a 4-3 lead.

Huntsville scored two runs in the bottom of the third off of an error in order to take a 5-4 lead.

Brenham would jump back out in front in the top of the fourth inning. Kyla Garcia walked, and then came home on an RBI double by Maurer. Then, Mabie singled home Maurer to give the Cubettes a 6-5 lead.

The Lady Hornets tied it once again with a run in the bottom of the sixth inning. They would later walk it off with a run in the bottom of the seventh to win it.
