MINDEN - For the second time in three days, the Douglas High softball team, showed its flair for the dramatic.

After nipping Wooster 1-0 on Tuesday, the Tigers scored four runs in their last two at-bats to register a 6-4 come-from-behind win over Reed Thursday afternoon in a nonleague game.

Douglas closes out its regular season with a Saturday doubleheader at South Lake Tahoe. Game time is 1 p.m.

A sweep would give the Tigers a four-game win streak heading into its zone opener Thursday against either Fallon or Reed in Fallon.

"Hopefully we'll build from this," Douglas coach Rick Smith said. "We picked up two very big wins this week. The girls know they can beat some good teams. It's a matter of who gets hot at the right time of the year."

Douglas trailed 4-2 after four, as starter Brittany Puzey was nicked for four unearned runs thanks to three Douglas errors.

The Tigers tied the game in the fifth when Kayla Dunn slammed her 10th homer of the season, a two-run shot off Shayla Cain over the fence in left-center field.

Jessie Kizer, the hero of the Wooster game, was safe on an error to open the sixth. She moved to second on a sacrifice bunt, advanced to third on an infield out and scored on Kaycee Wilcks' single off the glove of Reed relief pitcher Kelsie Hawley.

Wilcks moved to second when Puzey was walked intentionally, and scored all the way from second on a wild pitch by Hawley, that bounced 15 feet away from the plate.

Dunn, who came on to pitch in the sixth, retired Reed in order to pick up the win.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE - The playoff-bound Tigers used the longball and the three-hit pitching of Chris Honer to pummel the Vikings in a Sierra League game Thursday afternoon.

Austin Graham, Bryan Miller and James Bunting homered for the Tigers, who improved to 17-9. The Vikings and Tigers meet in Minden for a 1 p.m. doubleheader on Saturday.

Graham sparked the Tigers to a 4-0 lead with a two-run homer in the top of the first, and Bryan Miller (2-for-4) made it 6-0 with a two-run homer in the second. It was Miller's second straight game with a homer.

Bunting's three-run homer in the fourth made it 9-1. He went 2-for-4 on the day.

Douglas closed it out with six runs in the seventh, the key hit being a three-run double by Graham, who finished 2-for-4 with five RBI.

"It was a good win," first-year head coach John Glover said. "A lot of the young guys got in the game and got some at-bats. We executed pretty well.

"Honer threw OK, nothing fancy. He was getting outs, and we played good defense behind him."
