Tied. Bottom of the first. 5-5. This is how the Drexel Lady Cats entered into the second inning when they hosted the Osceola Indians for a night at the local ball field last Tuesday. It looked promising.
Drexel scored again in the 2nd to take a single-point lead, but the Lady Indians retaliated by holding the local girls scoreless in the third and bringing two of their own across the plate.

The local baseball team started off on the right foot last Tuesday when they hosted the Osceola Indians. However, their 3-0 lead well into the 3rd inning was cut short when the Indians put four up and continued to dominate to the finish. The Drexel boys couldn’t protect the plate and fell to the travelers, 14-8.
