Slated on the road JCD Lady Eagles varsity action of Saturday, April 8, against the Franklin County Lady Wildcats was halted due to weather conditions in the area. The slated April 10 match up between the Lady Eagles and the Madison Shawe Lady Hilltoppers was stopped due to too many ill Lady Hilltoppers for them to field a team. On April 12, the South Ripley Lady Raiders trekked to JCDHS to battle their rival Lady Eagle opponents; however, with all the Lady Raider upperclassmen converting to Track & Field this spring, and a new coach in Coach Smith heading up the SR charge, the team may face a rough road in 2017. Lady Eagles domination became the key word as SR could generate no scoring against the Lady Eagles defense, eventually in the bottom of the sixth inning, falling by an 0-10 loss to JCD.
