STEPHENVILLE (March 28, 2017) — No. 10 Stephenville ran over Waxahachie Life for the second time this season, with Tuesday’s 16-0 four-inning victory giving the Honeybees (19-3, 7-0) a 102-5 runs margin in seven district wins in 8-4A.

Stephenville has outscored district foes 102-5, and has won seven straight overall by a margin of 94-10. On the season, Stephenville has outscored its opponents 275-51, an average margin of 12.5-2.3 per game.

Jessica Howell ended Tuesday’s mercy-rule victory with a walk-off 2-run home run in the bottom of the fourth at McCleskey Field. The Honeybees started slow with just a 1-0 lead after the second, but they ran away in the bottom of the third, with a 2-run double by Sami Shaffer making 4-0 before the senior Tarleton pledge was driven in by Bianka McCombs, two runs scored on a single by Morgan DiCiccio, Samantha Luna crossed the plate on a wild pitch and DiCiccio scored on a single by Madioson Gilder.

Suddenly it was 9-0 after three innings, and Stephenville turned the circle over Skye Gaitan, who relieved Julia Flores. Gaiman preserved the shutout while the Honeybee bats added seven more runs in the fourth, capped by Howell’s shot to end it.

The Bees are idle Friday and and visit Glen Rose at 7 p.m. next Tuesday, April 4.
