COLLINWOOD –<br />
Jr. Lady Lions Repeat As<br />
District Tourney Champions<br />
They would wait several<br />
hours to discover their<br />
opponent. The Linden<br />
Lady Vikings defeated<br />
Lobelville. This win<br />
matched them up with<br />
the WMS Lady Cats. The<br />
Lady Cats overcame the<br />
Vikings leading them back<br />
into the championship<br />
game against the FHS<br />
Lady Lions.<br />
The fi nal game of the<br />
evening was quite a<br />
battle. The lead switched<br />
hands each inning, and<br />
the Lady Lions faced a 3<br />
run defi cit in the 5 th. The<br />
Lady Lions fought back<br />
in the 6 th by shutting out<br />
the Lady Cats. They then<br />
answered with 7 runs<br />
of their own. Neither<br />
team was willing to give<br />
up, but the Lady Lions<br />
pulled it out with a 15-12<br />
victory.<br />

Konig, Alissa Hunter<br />
and Morgan Long.<br />
The tournament win<br />
was a repeat for the<br />
Lady Lions. Since<br />
the conference was<br />
established in 2009,<br />
the Lady Lions have<br />
had two championships<br />
and two runner-up<br />
up fi nishes. The girls<br />
should be congratulated<br />
for their efforts and<br />
successes. Several girls<br />
have been recognized for<br />
their accomplishments.<br />
Mallory Cherry,<br />
Lacey Staggs, Paige<br />
Churchwell, and Hannah<br />
Kate Love were selected<br />
as all-conference for their<br />
performance during the<br />
2012 season. Madison<br />
Holt and Julianne<br />
Blackburn played major<br />
roles in every victory and<br />
should be applauded for<br />
the leadership that they<br />
provided for this team.<br />
