Bolivar Softball ended its season today with a 6-2 loss to Republic. However, Bolivar earned its 20th win on Friday night with a 4-2 win over Reeds Spring.
The district championship game came down to a single swing of the bat. With the bases loaded in teh first, Republic lined a hit into left center to clear the bases with a controversial call made at the plate that would have ended the innnig and denied Republic their 3 run. However, Bolivar hung on to the game until the 5th. In that inning Republic plated 3 insurance runs to effectively end the game, or so they thought. Bolivar threated in the 6th but were unable to get that big 2 out hit. Then in the 7th, Bolivar scored twice to get the final of 6-2.
The loss ended the High School career of Jess Rumfelt, Dani Sharp, Jordan Halbrook, Rachel Terrell, Katy Roweton and Lindsay Lehman. Good luck to each of those ladies as they go on with their Senior year.
The Liberators ended their 2008 competition with a 44-11 record (summer and fall combined)
