Only an eighth grader, Miles has become an integral part of her team’s success including an impressive performance inside the circle and at the plate last week. In four contests, Miles turned in a .462 clip along with a pair of home runs. However, it was the efforts inside the circle that helped lead French Settlement to three wins against schools with winning records. She worked 24 innings surrendering just one earned run while striking out 22 batters. She picked up two victories as starting pitcher and even earned a save against Class 5A Chalmette with over 65% of pitches thrown called strikes.
