Sorry, Matoaca.
Lacey Waldrop, Thomas Dale’s ace softball pitcher, will return Thursday as the Knights host the Warriors at 5 p.m.
Dale is 3-1 on the young season, its only loss to Lee-Davis 14-2, the No. 1 team in the DigitalSports Top 10.
Waldrop did not pitch in that game after injuring her ankle in the season-opening win over Varina.
“Hopefully things will start getting better,” Thomas Dale coach Dennis Jones said.
As a freshman, Waldrop was an all-DigitalSports selection as Thomas Dale finished the regular-season unbeaten winning the Central District.
