GAME STORY: Forsan falls just short in state semifinal comeback bid

AUSTIN — The comeback kids finally fell short. But not before putting nearly everyone at McCombs Field on the edge of their seats. 

Power-hitting Forsan, with its penchant blasting its way out of trouble, saw its season come to a close on Tuesday in a 4-3 loss to Beckville in a Class 2A softball state semifinal. 

Bethany Grandgeorge was 2 for 3 with two doubles and earned the pitching win, while Gracey Struwe and Bailey Quinn were both 1 for 3 with two RBIs to lead Beckville (32-6-2), which advances to face either Crawford (29-6) or Shiner (31-3) for the Class 2A state title at 7 p.m. on Wednesday. 

Forsan (30-8-1), which had chopped a 4-0 deficit to 4-3, saw its rally end when Grandgeorge tossed a scoreless seventh inning while facing the top of the FHS order.
