  • Soccer: A pair of hat tricks...

    Two is better than one. For the Lady Minutemen Delaney Snead and Maria Young proved that philosophy true by each recording a hat trick in Liberty’s 7-2 victory over Amherst County in the opening round of the Seminole District Tournament.
        

    Snead had run absolutely wild on the Lady Lancers’ defense. Liberty scored 4-0 victories in each of the regular season meetings between the two teams. In those two games Snead scored five goals.

    The Lady Minutemen dugout was full of screams with hands, bats and helmets banging on the fence. Across the field the Jefferson Forest dugout was quiet and focused. Everyone’s eyes focused on either Meghan O’Neil on the mound or Gracie Dooley in the batters box.
        

    Dooley stepped into the box with runners on second and third with two outs in the bottom of the seventh, Jefferson Forest led 2-1.
