BILOXI — Neither Pascagoula of Biloxi are enjoying stellar seasons on the softball diamond this year, but the Lady Indians did pick up another win on Monday night.
Home-standing Biloxi toppled the Lady Panthers 10-6 at The Biloxi Sports Complex in non-region action. The win moved the Lady Indians to 4-11 overall on the season, while Pascagoula drops to 5-9. Both teams are still fighting for a spot in the state playoffs in their respective classifications as each are still in search of their first region wins.

Aubrey Atchison posted an RBI-triple for Biloxi, while Imani Shannon registered a three-run double and Nia Shannon had an RBI-double also in the winning effort. Erin Hill added two hits and drove in a game-high three runs for the Lady Indians, while both Kylie McKay and Aubrie Hill each had two hits apiece in the 11-hit attack.
McKay started and hurled five frames to pick up the win on the mound.
Dextiny Combs smashed a two-run home run for Pascagoula in the loss, while Keara Millender had a pair of hits including a double and also drove in two runs in the game.
The win helped Biloxi earn a little revenge over Pascagoula after the Lady Panthers rallied for an exciting 12-10 win at home five weeks ago after scoring three runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to overcome a 10-9 deficit and pull out the win.
