FULTON, MS -- Trailing 4-1 after four innings of play, the Lady Indians rattled off three runs in the bottom of the fifth and four more in the sixth to rally for the come-from-behind 8-7 Game 1 victory over Jackson State (TN) Community College on Tuesday.
Kory Watterson (Nesbit) got things going with a single to center to start the bottom of the sixth and was replaced on the bases by Montana Hawkins (Sulligent, AL) and advanced to second on a wild pitch before Emilee Henderson (Burnsville) drew a seven-pitch walk.
Ashley Camp (Amory) singled to center to advance the runners before Megan Jones (Raleigh) singled to left to plate Hawkins and Henderson scampered home on the second wild pitch of the inning to cut the Jackson State lead to 7-6 before tying the game when Camp scored on a ground out by Monica Wade (Florence).
The Lady Indians took an 8-7 lead when Lauren Lewis (Mooreville), running for Jones, scored on a ground out by Catherine Carver (Hernando).
Rebecca Sloan (Woodland, AL) re-entered the game in place of relief pitch Dani Taylor (Myrtle) to get a three up, three down top of the seventh to earn her first save of the season and secure Taylor's second win.
Camp finished the game going 2-for-3 with two runs while Carver added three RBI in the victory.
