The Jefferson Lady Dragons are on to the Elite 8 in Columbus following a sweep Wednesday over Ringgold.

Jefferson (27-6) edged Ringgold 3-2 in the Sweet 16 opener behind Emily Perrin’s beautiful performance in the circle in which she sent down 14 on strikes and allowed only two hits.

The Lady Dragons then drummed Ringgold 11-0 in five innings to notch the second quarterfinals trip in the last three years.
