May 17, 2024 - After three innings, Columbus North softball led Hauser by a narrow 1-0 advantage. That all changed in the top of the fourth inning as the Bull Dogs exploded for eleven runs and added four more in the top of the fifth to claim a 16-1 victory in their final regular season game of the season. Miley McClellan and Ali Wooten each had three hits, and Bailee Scruggs busted a three-run home run in the fourth inning, as the Dogs improved to 12-11. All three of these batters were credited with three RBI for the contest. Payton Morris pitched all five innings for the Dogs, allowing only five hits and one run while striking out five.
