St. Joseph's softball team earned a 5-4 victory against Harding Academy on Tuesday to avenge an earlier thumping.
The Lady Bulldogs lost to the Lady Wildcats early in the season by 15 runs.
“It was a big win," St. Joseph coach Lisa Bates said. "We played them the first game in the season and they run-ruled us.”
Bates described Harding as a “strong team with good athletes.”
Good defense and hitting sealed the deal for St. Joe. Sam Hoelzman went 2-for-5 with a double and a single. Amy Schichtl went 2-for-4 with a double and a triple. She was also the winning pitcher.
The Lady Bulldogs improved to 7-3 overall, second in the 2A 5-North conference.
St. Joseph will play Bauxite Thursday.
