Gwinnett players lead North to split of all-star doubleheader
DALTON -- Four recently graduated Gwinnett County seniors helped
the North all-stars earn a split with the South in the GACA all-
star softball doubleheader late Wednesday at Heritage Park.  The
North all-stars, who were coached by Collins Hill's Billy
Dooley, took a 4-0 win in Game 1, while the South came back to
claim the nightcap 9-6.  Peachtree Ridge's Gabby Bedard went a
combined 2-for-3 for the day with a double, a stolen base and
two runs scored, while Hayley Downs of Grayson was 2-for-5 with
a double, two runs scored and two RBIs.  Also contributing for
the North were Collins Hill's Sammy Lenahan (1-for-2, R,
sacrifice fly, an RBI and a walk) and Alysha Rudnik of Buford
(sac fly RBI, run, two walks).  Julia Westbrook of Brookwood was
also selected, but was unable to play due to illness.
