Lady Chiefs Beat Jay In District Tournament
April 21, 2010
The Northview Lady Chiefs are regional playoff bound after a big 14-3 win in six over the Jay Royals Tuesday night.
The top seed Chiefs (23-3) will play Baker (15-7) at 6 p.m. Thursday for the District 1-2A championship. No. 2 Baker advanced to the finals with a 10-8 win over Freeport Tuesday afternoon.
“We hit the ball, and we hit the ball hard for the most part” Day said. “The defense played well, and pitching did real well.”
Freshman Misty Doran (17-3) took the win on the mound for the Chiefs, with five strike outs and three walks. Day said he was proud of his freshman star Tuesday night.
“I had to go out there and calm Misty down because they hit that line drive and she got mad,” he said with a laugh. “But as soon as I calmed her down, she threw strikes after that…but she was mad.”
For the Lady Chiefs Ashley Digmon was 1-4 with a double; Shawna Montgomery was 2-3 with a triple; Kolbi Cobb was 2-3; Misty Doran was 3-4 with a double; and Haley Simpson was 2-4.
For the Royals, Olivia Wright was 1-3 with a triple.
Northview has beat Baker twice this season, 13-1 and 8-0. The Gators have won the district crown three years running.
With a win Thursday night, the Lady Chiefs will be home for the regionals, a loss would put them on the road..

William, don’t worry about the picture, it will live forever in my inflated ego
Nathan — I heard the crowd cheer and heard about your awesome catch. But I could not see it from my position on the field. Hate I missed an awesome picture of your awesome catch.
That’s the way, Chiefs. Bring on Baker!! By the way, I’m disappointed that my awesome one-handed while holding the baby and eating a now-and-later foul ball catch didn’t make the photo gallery. Everybody did see it though, right?
