Grace Academy’s Lacye Walker.Last Thursday when Silverdale Baptist hosted Grace Academy in a District 5-A high school softball game, a Lacye Walker home run proved to be the difference for Grace in an otherwise scoreless game.
The teams played again Tuesday, also at Silverdale but Grace’s home game, and this time a home run by Walker was only the beginning.
Building on their leadoff batter’s opening shot, the Lady Golden Eagles cruised past the Lady Seahawks 12-0 in four innings.
Grace coach Tina Walker said she was hoping for more offense than the run her daughter provided in last week’s game, and as soon as possible.
“That was the plan,” Coach Walker said. “We wanted to jump on them early. A lot of the games we’ve had with them have been so tight. They always seem to get up for us.
