CONCORD – On Monday night, the 15th-seeded East Rowan softball team came away with a 1-0, extra-inning victory over second-seeded Central Cabarrus to advance to the second round of the Class 3A state playoffs.
Each squad’s team/captain pitcher dominated throughout. Neither Mustangs senior Haley Strange nor Vikings junior Brantleigh Parrott allowed an earned run. Strange only gave up three hits and had 16 strikeouts. Parrott, meanwhile, only allowed a single hit and had 17 strikeouts, and had at least one strikeout in every inning.
“It was a pitcher’s duel,” said Vikings coach Charlie Blackwelder. “It was going to come down to who scored first.”
