Flowery Branch High’s Jessica Gunter delivers a pitch during the Falcons’ game with North Hall in the Lanier Point Invitational softball tournament Friday afternoon.
Until sophomore Kelly Kahlert’s bases clearing triple, Flowery Branch built its lead with bunts and infield singles. But it was the Falcons’ center fielder’s shot down the right field line that broke open the game against North Hall on the way to a four-inning, 11-2 win Friday in the Lanier Point Invitational at the Lanier Point Softball Complex. It ended up being the first and only game of the night for the Falcons, whose game against Rabun County, scheduled for 8 p.m., was moved to 8 a.m. today, along with the rest of the late games after lightning halted tournament play.
