OXFORD:<\/strong> The Lockview High Lady Dragons made history in dominant fashion, going a perfect 5\u20130 to win gold at the inaugural School Sport Nova Scotia high school girls baseball provincials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fall River-based squad opened the tournament on Oct. 17 with an 11\u20135 victory over a tough Barrington Municipal High team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pitchers Georgia Hines and Ashlyn Day combined on a three-hitter, with Day earning Co-MVP honours after a stellar performance that included 10 strikeouts, five walks, and just one hit allowed through four innings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neve Adams joined Day as Co-MVP, reaching base three times, driving in a pair of runs, and throwing out a runner on a steal attempt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the gold medal final on Saturday, the Lady Dragons faced the host Oxford Regional Education Centre Bears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior pitcher Iris Long dazzled on the slab, striking out 14 of the 21 batters she faced over five innings, allowing just one ball in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adams closed things out, striking out the side to secure the combined no-hitter and the 11\u20131 championship win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reese Adams was also strong at the plate, leading the offence by reaching base three times and collecting three RBIs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the weekend, Lockview\u2019s pitching and defense were nearly flawless, giving up just six hits in 30 innings while outscoring opponents 49\u201313.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head coach Adam Long said he couldn\u2019t be more proud of the way his players came together on and off the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was really great watching these girls of different ages and social groups, facing rainy and cold weather, band together around school sports,\u201d Long said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTypically, we wouldn\u2019t see these girls play together. They\u2019re usually spread across recreational, AAA, AA, A, and Team Nova Scotia levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis was the first time seeing them all play together, the collective female baseball product of the Lockview High communities of Waverley, Windsor Junction, Lakeview, Fall River, Beaver Bank, and Wellington-Grand Lake.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coach Long also credited Lockview staff and assistant coaches Scott Adams, Raelea Nickerson, and Jeremy Peck for helping make the program\u2019s first season a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lady Dragons return to Fall River not just as champions, but as trailblazers, Long said, setting the standard for high school girls baseball in Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
