VC Lady Eagles overcome obstacles in win

The Vermilion Catholic Lady Eagles overcame a late start to the season, slippery field conditions, and a four-run deficit in the bottom of the seventh inning to score a 24-23 victory over the St. Martinville Lady Tigers Tuesday at Comeaux Park.
The win was the third of the season for VC against only one loss. Most teams have already played 10-15 games. Lady Eagles’ co-head coach Kim Guidry explained that being a 1A school with girls playing multiple sports, they had to wait until basketball season ended to have enough players to field a team.
