HOOVER – On Saturday, the Spain Park Jaguars hosted the JAG Classic Softball Tournament, inviting teams from all over to Hoover to compete. The Hewitt Trussville Huskies was one of those teams and they stole the show in the Jaguars’ house, going 4-0, allowing just 3 runs total in those 4 games and scoring a no-hitter for Sara Phillips in one of those games.

In game one, Hewitt played the Calera Eagles, winning 6-1. Hewitt got on the board first by scoring 2 in the first as Hannah Dorsett got on base on a single to right field and Olivia Faggard followed it with a double that drove the runner in. Chaney Peters would then hit a double to drive in Faggard and end the first at 2-0 Huskies. Both teams were scoreless in the second followed by a 3-run third inning for the Huskies that saw Dorsett get on base on a bunt, Faggard get walked and Peters hit a sacrifice fly that would bring both of them home, followed by a solo home run by Lexy Kelly, to put Hewitt up 5-0 after three innings. Calera would get their only run in the fourth and the Huskies would close out their scoring in the bottom of the inning with a Faggard single that brought in Dorsett for the score. Kenly Poe got the win for Hewitt, surrendering no runs on three hits in two
