Lady Hornets eliminated as rally falls short

May 15—The Huntsville Lady Hornets' most successful season in recent memory came to a close on Friday night at Rusk High School.

Huntsville kept it close early and made a late comeback attempt, but was ultimately edged out 7-5 by Sulphur Springs in the second game of their Class 5A regional quarterfinal series.

"I'm proud of them in so many ways that they don't even know," Huntsville head coach Morgan Bryan said. "They're stubborn like me and we may butt heads, but they go to war for each other. I couldn't have asked for anything more."

The Lady Hornets fell behind 1-0 in the top of the second, but bounced back to even things back up in the bottom half of the inning.
