SUMMARY: The Ocean Springs Lady Greyhounds secured a 5-2 victory over the D'Iberville Lady Warriors in a Region 4-7A softball game, marking their second win against D'Iberville within the week. Key players Gracie McDonald, Laynee Davis, and Caitlyn Ludwig contributed significantly to the win with crucial singles and runs. Despite a challenging game where D'Iberville's pitcher Emma Franklin initially shut down Ocean Springs, the Lady Greyhounds managed a comeback in the sixth inning. Ocean Springs' Brooklyn Peterson delivered a strong performance, allowing only two scores from the Lady Warriors. With this win, Ocean Springs is in a favorable position for the regional title, depending on the outcome of their next game against St. Martin. If they win, they advance to the playoffs as the region champions, facing the No. 4 seed in Region 3.
