SEAN ARNOLD/Riverland News ABOVE: Dunnellon senior Cameron Darnell goes in for a safe slide against Crystal River on April 15. The senior went 3 for 3 at the plate with a double, a triple, three RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base in the 10-0 win over the Lady Pirates. Darnell also made big plays with her arm in right field, including throwing out a base runner at first base from the outfield. LEFT: DHS senior Courtney Desena dominated Crystal River April 15 as she allowed just two hits in five shutout innings in the circle. DHS later evened its record at 10-10 on April 19 with its third straight win, an 8-5 triumph over Forest. The Lady Tigers celebrate senior night Thursday, April 22, against Williston, before competing in the District 4A-6 tour- nament next week. The Tiger baseball team (12-10) has its senior night Friday, April 23, versus West Port and then plays in its District 4A-5 tournament next week.
