Walnut's Taylor Garner went 3 for 3 with three RBIs to help lead Walnut past Pine Grove 8-5 on Monday

WALNUT - The Lady Wildcats welcomed Pine Grove to Walnut on Monday, as the pair of Tippah County squads matched up in a rematch of the second-place game of last month’s Tippah County Tournament.

Walnut was looking to get even with the Lady Panthers, and it started early with a three-hit, three-run first inning that featured a Taylor Garner 2RBI-single and a Maddie Wilburn sac-fly. Pine Grove quickly responded with a seven-hit, four-run inning that featured RBI-singles from Harley Givens and Rylee Hall, as well as a pair of runs that scored off of a passed ball and a ground out to give Pine Grove a 4-3 lead midway through the second inning.
