Coach Gooby Martin and his Warren County Middle School softball team have become used to the phrase rained out. If his team keeps playing as well as it did last weekend, undefeated may be the team’s newest catchphrase.The Lady Pioneers ran their record to a perfect 3-0 over the weekend by defeating Avery Trace on the road Friday 8-2 in extra innings, then following it up with a 20-5 destruction of Franklin South Middle School at home.Warren County hadn’t had a game in nearly two weeks when they finally got to travel Friday for a game. The Lady Pioneers needed six innings to shake off the rust of five consecutive rain-outs, but when it mattered most, Warren County was up to the task of defeating the home-standing Avery Trace team.The Lady Pioneers scored one run each in the fourth and fifth innings to force extra innings, then exploded for six runs in the top of the sixth to put the game away.Coach Martin got the rally going with one of the most exciting plays in softball.
