Two days after Jacksboro’s forfeit gave the Wall softball team a second chance at the postseason, the Lady Hawks downed No. 8 Canadian 4-0 in a single-game playoff at Lubbock-Cooper on Friday.
Madee Williams’ 12 strikeouts in seven innings pitched shut down the Canadian offense, which had not been held scoreless in a game this season. The senior also had a solo home run in the sixth inning, extending the Lady Hawks' lead to 2-0.

The final blow came in the seventh inning when the Lady Hawks added a pair of runs off a double from Jordan Chitsey and a sac fly from Kaimee Smith, which brought in Emery Harper for the final run.
With the win, Wall improved to 28-5 and took full advantage of its unconventional second chance opportunity.
Now, the Lady Hawks will face off against reigning three-time state champions Coahoma in the Class 3A Division II Region I final.

The No. 2 Bulldogettes are fresh off a three-game slugfest against top-ranked Holliday. Coahoma won the first game 22-18, but the Lady Eagles responded with a 16-12 win in Game 2 — the first playoff loss for Coahoma. Led by a seven-RBI performance from University of Texas softball signee Mia Clemmer, Coahoma dominated Holliday in the third game, 27-11, for the series win.
The two teams will play in a three-game series at Reagan County High School in Big Lake starting at 6 p.m. Friday. Game 2 is at noon Saturday and a possible Game 3 will follow 30 minutes after Game 2, if needed.
