Playing the Oakland Lady Patriots for the second time in four days and for the third time this season, the Warren County High School softball team was very familiar with its opponent.The knowledge couldn’t produce a win however, as the Lady Pioneers couldn’t find any offense until the final inning and by that time it was too late. Warren County fell to Oakland 7-3 Tuesday night in Murfreesboro.Warren County (10-8) hoped a good showing on Saturday against the Lady Patriots would carry over to Tuesday. The Lady Pioneers battled Oakland in the Border Battle over the weekend, losing 4-2.Warren County looked up to the challenge of taking down the Lady Patriots on their own field by playing to a scoreless stalemate through two innings.Though the Lady Pioneers were able to hold Oakland scoreless through two innings with solid defense behind starter Gabi Keith, it was missed scoring opportunities which proved to be costly.In the second inning, Taylor Grissom got the Lady Pioneers’ first hit with a single.
