Tift’s Blue Devils enter Thursday after a successful weekend at the Freedom Cup tournament in Houston County.

The Devils defeated Dublin Friday, 8-0, then slipped past Houston County, 1-0, on Saturday.

The squad advanced to the finals, but dropped a 2-0 contest to Colquitt County.

Earls said his team was worn down by three games in 26 hours.

The Lady Devils lost their opening game to Etowah, 2-1, but bounced back to finish the tournament with two wins.

In Saturday games, they won over Westlake, 3-2, and Colquitt County, 4-0.
