Thomas Heyward Academy softball plays in decisive state title game tonight

Thomas Heyward Academy will play tonight in Charleston with a chance to bring home a SCISA Class 2-A state softball championship.

The Rebels will travel to the Holy City on Thursday where they’ll face Williamsburg Academy at 5 p.m. at Charleston Southern University.

THA dropped a close game Wednesday night, losing 1-0 on a final-inning home run.

The loss evened the best-of-three-games series 1-1.

“Both teams only allowed two hits,” Rebels coach Bob Layman wrote in a text message to the Island Packet and Beaufort Gazette on Thursday morning.
