The
Lady Wolverines opened to 2008 Softball

and
improved home facilities, a new coaching
staff and new style uniforms but were unable
to make the day a complete success as they
fell to the Sonoraville Lady Phoenix 5-4
before a large opening day
crowd on the Dade
County High campus. The Lady Wolves fell
behind 5-1 after 2 innings and
couldn’t
catch up as they lose their season opener.
Errors and walks in the first two innings
put
Dade in a hole they couldn't dig out of.
The Wolves rallied for 1 in the 1st, 2 in
the 3rd and 1 in the 5th but came up short as the
Lady Phoenix notched thier first win over
the Lady Wolverines. Morgan Tinker had
two hits and scored three runs for the
Wolverines. Sonoraville
improves to 4-4 on the season while Dade
falls to 0-1.
They won’t have long to reload though as they open play Friday afternoon at the LFO Tourney against Cass at 4:00 PM. They will play twice today and three times on Saturday in the tournament at Emily Waldrop tries to leg out a 6th inning hit Jack Mattox Complex in Ft. Ogelthorpe.

FOOTBALL SEASON GETS UNDER WAY- PANTHERS PREVAIL 34-14 8/15/08
The Dade
County Wolverines provided a good show
Thursday night for the fans from Dade County
who traveled to Finley Stadium to see first
public look at the Bradley Warren era.
The Wolverines were strong in the first two series on offense and defense as they stood toe to toe early with the Ridgeland Panthers stopping the powerful offense on the early series as both teams matched up their first teams on offense and defense.
Ridgeland’s depth and talent proved too much
for the Wolverines as two big plays on
offense and a 30 yd interception for a
TD
gave the Panthers a 34-14 win in the final
tune up for the regular season which will
start on August 29 against the Fyfee Red
Devils who are the defending state
runners-up in Alabama finishing 13-1 last
season.
Watch Highlights of the this week’s game and take a look ahead to the next game on the Wolverine Football Show with Bradley warren on Tuesday nights at 8 PM.
