By David Rogers. MOCKSVILLE, N.C. — It was a day for “small ball,” including 15 stolen bases by the Watauga Wolverines, the district middle school softball team, in a 9-2 win over North Davie Middle School.
Getting runners on base in any way possible, followed up by timely hitting was critical to the Wolverines’ win. Four walks and four times getting hit by a North Davie pitch helped get runners on base. Doubles by Presli Wood (5th inning) and Peyton Isaacs (3rd inning) helped bring the runners home.
Allie Ellis was the starting pitcher for the Wolverines, recording five strikeouts in picking up the win.
