Farmington 3, Greenwood 1

That was all the scoring until the sixth when the Lady Cardinals (17-7) finally got to Cartwright.
Callie Harper got the rally started with a lead-off single, and Farmington took the lead with one swing of Carley Antwine’s bat as her two-run home run sailed over the right field fence for a 2-1 lead.
With two outs, Paige Anderson walked and was replaced in the base by Madison Parrish, who stole second and scored on Devecsery’s RBI single for a 3-1 lead.
Devecsery made the lead stand up, working around a hit batter to earn the complete-game win.
The Lady Cardinals will return to action on Tuesday at Clarksville.
