Not to be outdone, senior Erin Falkenberry smacked a two-run home run in the bottom of the third inning to set the program’s career standard with 24 round-trippers.
Shonda Garringer produced three hits and scored three runs for the Arabians, now 22-5 overall and 8-0 in the HHC standings.
Frankton 4, Sheridan 0
A four-run sixth frame was all the scoring the host Eagles would need in getting past Sheridan.
Bre Shively notched the victory for Frankton (15-7) with a complete-game effort that included eight strikeouts and three walks. Felicia Roudebush came through with a double and two RBIs for the hosts, who are at the Class 2A Lapel Sectional on Monday against the host Bulldogs.
Alexandria 7, Tipton 0
The visiting Tigers warmed up for next week’s Lapel Sectional by shutting out Tipton on the strength of pitcher Sarah Almack’s two-hitter.

Lapel 3, Wes-Del 2
The Bulldogs touched the plate twice in the bottom of the seventh inning to improve to 12-12 entering Saturday’s doubleheader against Shenandoah.
