The Nansemond-Suffolk Academy softball advanced to the TCIS semifinals with a 13-0, four-inning win Tuesday over Bishop Sullivan Catholic School.
It didn’t take long for the Lady Saints to break open their opening round game, as they scored all of their runs in the first three innings, finishing off the game in four innings to advance to the Tidewater Conference of Independent Schools tournament semifinals.
Reese Byrd pitched a no-hitter, striking out four, while seven different Lady Saints had hits. Maya McGowan went 1-for-2 with two runs and three RBIs. Gabby Infranco was 1-for-1 with a run and three RBIs.
