AID — This was no walk through the park.

Symmes Valley pitchers combined to walk 10 batters with seven scoring as the Lady Vikings lost 13-6 to the Sciotoville East Lady Tartans on Wednesday in a Southern Ohio Conference game.

“We played pretty good other than the one inning. We hit the ball, we just walked too many,” said Lady Vikings’ coach Jeff “Odie” Estep.

Symmes Valley (5-7, 3-4) had 10 hits led by Katie Hill who was 3-4. Cheianne Hivley was 2-3.

The game was tied 4-4 after four innings, but East got four runs in the fifth and five in the sixth to open the game up.

The Lady Vikings host Portsmouth Notre Dame on Thursday.
