Here is the 2017 Oak Ridge High School softball schedule.
As of Saturday, the softball team was 1-1 (1-0 in District 3-AAA).
Oak Ridge defeated Knox Central 6-5 on Thursday at Fountain City Park in a district game, said Nelson Glover, Oak Ridge softball coach. Seniors Jenna Murphy and Kelsey Benjamin provided multiple hits along with timely extra base hits from Bailey Watkins (sophomore), Hannah Tobler (junior), and Kaitlan Paine (senior).
Junior pitcher Caroline Tobler picked up her first win, pitching three scoreless innings to close out the game, Glover said.
