NETTLETON – Down to the last inning and trailing by three, the Nettleton Lady Tigers refused to fold, mounting a dramatic comeback in a 6-5 win over Alcorn Central last Wednesday.
“The girls didn’t give up, and I was super proud of them for that,” Nettleton coach Makenzie Sullivan said. “They came back with a fight and did what they needed to do to get the win in the bottom of the seventh.”
