GEORGETOWN — Georgetown rallied late to defeat Blanchester 11-8 Monday in SBAAC National Division softball.

The Ladycats trailed 5-1 but scored six runs in the fourth to take a 7-5 lead.

But defensive lapses in the fifth and sixth proved costly as the Lady G-Men regained the lead.

Blanchester is 3-14 overall, 2-5 in the National. Georgetown is 8-3, 3-2.

“I was really pleased with the way we battled the whole game,” BHS coach Jamey Grogg said.

Bailey Dawley had three hits, including a double, and drove in two runs to lead the BHS offense. Lydia Peters had a single, double and RBI.

Rianna Mueller pitched well, Grogg said, but only five of the 11 runs were earned.
