Ellah Wallace’s three-run double broke an 8-8 tie in the fifth inning, and the Troy Lady Trojans went on to defeat Thompson Falls 12-8 in the third-place game at the Western B softball divisional Saturday.
The win avenged a 7-5 loss to the Blue Hawks in their tournament opener. The Lady Trojans (18-7) won their next three games, all by four runs, and will head to the State B tournament — along with divisional champion Florence, Mission-Arlee-Charlo and Thompson Falls — for the first time. Glasgow hosts the event beginning Thursday.
Florence beat MAC 13-3 in Saturday’s championship.
