The Eagles’ coaching staff picked a helluva time for senior pitcher Grant Cox to make his debut on the bump. The Seward College pledge was brought into the game with Holliday (13-5) nursing a 4-2 lead on Iowa Park with two outs in the top of the seventh with the bases loaded.

The Holliday Lady Eagles collected two final wins on its dirt softball field last week, putting a bow on a special place for so many classes of Lady Eagles. “It makes you think about all the players and practices that have been played out here,” Holliday head coach Billy Arbogast said.
