CENTREVILLE — After getting off to a rough start, Centreville Academy pitcher Emily Gaulden pitched six scoreless innings to help lead the Lady Tigers to a 10-1 win over the WCCA Lady Rams Thursday afternoon.

Centreville was originally scheduled to host Parklane Academy, but that game was cancelled. The Aug. 2 game between WCCA and Centreville that was rained out was rescheduled for Thursday at Centreville.

WCCA (1-4) scored its only run in the top of the first inning on a walk and a fielder’s choice. It was all Centreville after that as the Lady Tigers improved to 6-1 overall.

“Emily had some control problems early, but she settled down,” Centreville head coach Mark Mann said. Emily Gaulden gave up just two hits, struck out nine and walked three.

Centreville got a three-run double from Erin Gaulden, a two-run double from Kristen Lee and an RBI single from Katie Berry in the bottom of the first. Erin Gaulden added an RBI single an inning later.
