There are 6 sets of 6 weeks in one whole school year, and this past Friday was the end of the fifth sixth week. So with simple math you can see that this school year is almost completely over. However just because the school year is close to being done, does not mean there isn’t any thing (besides summer) to look forward to. For instance there is still Harmony’s FFA state CDE’s, the 7th grade trip to the fish hatchery in Athens, band majorette/drum major tryouts, the color run, field day, and of course senior week. Therefore Harmony defiantly has plenty of things for everyone to look forward to.

Lady Eagles won their twelfth straight district game last Tuesday evening as they pounded the Winona Lady Wildcats, 16-3, in District 14-AAA softball action. The game ended in five innings due to the 10-run mercy rule.

Harmony jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the first inning. The Lady Eagles added five runs in the second and seven in the third frame to launch a commanding, 16-0, lead

before Winona finally pushed across three runs in the bottom of the third inning.

Harmony brought out the “sticks” against Winona as the Lady Eagles had 12 hits in the game with six of these for extra-bases. Mikaelyn Settles had a home run, double, walk, and 3 RBIS to lead the Harmony offense.

Other Lady Eagles having a multiple-hit game were Cailee Davidson, 2-for-3, including a triple and double; Hunter Morris, 2-for-3, with a triple;

and McKinna Seahorn, 2-for-3 plus a walk.

Settles was the winning pitcher for Harmony. She recorded 10 of 15 outs via the strike out route. Winona only managed three hits in the game---all singles.

Harmony (12-0) was to host Mineola (11-1) on Friday, April 17. The Lady Eagles close out the regular season on Tuesday, April 21, when they travel to Alba-Golden to take on the A-G Lady Panthers. Gametime is 6:00 P.M.
