BROWN NAMED REGION TRACK ATHLETE OF THE YEAR | WHKY News — Local sports for Friday, 6/9/23

WHKY Sports Director Jason Savage recaps local sports from across the Hickory Metro, including American Legion baseball, three regional honors for Lenoir-Rhyne women’s track and field team, Hickory Crawdads and more.

Three Lowco girls soccer teams will play for SCISA state championships on Saturday, and at least one of them is guaranteed to take home a title.

Hilton Head Prep sucked the drama out of a highly-anticipated rematch with John Paul the 2nd in the SCISA 3A semifinals, routing the Golden Warriors 8-2 to leave no doubt after two competitive matchups in the regular season. Callah Dando scored a hat trick and added an assist, and Ashley Brothers had two goals and three assists to lead a dominant effort from the Dolphins, who will face Christian Academy of Myrtle Beach in Saturday’s championship game.

The Saints edged two-time defending state champion Hilton Head Christian Academy 3-2 in the other semifinal, ending the Eagles’ reign.

It will be an All-Beaufort final in the SCISA 1A/2A bracket, with crosstown rivals Beaufort Academy and Holy Trinity meeting for all the marbles. BA blazed to 5-1 win over Patrick Henry at home last night, getting a hat trick and an assist from Keiley Good and a pair of goals from Ella Cooler.

Holy Trinity earned a second shot at the Eagles and an opportunity to avenge a 3-1 regular-season loss with a thrilling shootout win at Cambridge Academy on Wednesday. Izzy Harter scored the Mighty Lions’ only goal in regulation and buried the clinching penalty and Abby Schaub gave a stellar performance in goal.

It’s been a magical week for the Beaufort Eagles, but the softball team’s run ended in the district finals with a 6-2 loss to Marlboro County.

Just a handful of games on tap tonight, but they’re all big ones this time of year.
