The Lady Bucs took on the Lady Pirates from Deweyville Tuesday in second round softball action. The Lady Bucs fell short losing 6-0. It was a hard fought game with several bright spots for EC. Mattie East had a great pitching performance allowing only 4 hits. The Lady Buc defense was great through the first three innings, and then let their guard down giving up 3 runs on 3 errors. The pitching by Deweyville was too much for the Lady Bucs as she struck out 14 batters. The only base runner for the night was a base-hit bunt by Katie Bennett.
On Tuesday, March 23, 2010, the Lady Bucs went to Hardin for the last game of the first round of district play.
