The Lady Eagles continue to look for their first win of the 2010 softball campaign.

Coming off of a pair of losses last week, the Lady Eagles fell to 0-3 and are hoping their first ever pairing with the Lady Panthers of Jackson County will give them an opportunity to turn things around.

Jackson County enters the match-up fresh off a victory over Elbert County. The Lady Panthers are off to an extremely strong start in 2010, going 2-0 early on in region play and 3-0-2 overall. The two ties came in timed-out tournament games.

The first pitch Thursday is scheduled for 5:55 p.m. at JCCHS.

The Lady Eagles started off last week against Oglethorpe County at home.

The game was scoreless through three innings. The Lady Patriots put two runners across in the fourth to take a 2-0 lead.

East Jackson cut the lead in half in the bottom of the fourth, with senior Brooklyn Watkins scoring from third on a single.

But despite threatening several times over the last three innings, the Eagles didn’t score again, while Oglethorpe put four more runners across to take the 6-1 victory.

Sophomore pitcher Taylor Nix recorded the loss from the mound.

Things didn’t get much better on Thursday, as the Lady Eagles traveled to North Oconee to face the Lady Titans. East Jackson came away with a 9-1 loss, their fourth in as many meetings.

Individual statistics were unavailable at press time.
