Big Wins for the Cowboys

Lisa Golden reported for the Girls Softball Team:

Last week of regulation softball - Time for catching up!:
The Cowboys visited CHCA Tuesday (5/5/15) for a non-league contest.  The starting pitcher for CHCA lasted only one inning and had trouble with her control; hitting two of the three starting batters and walking the next two.  Wyoming scored 7 runs on 3 hits and an error.  In the second inning, their top pitcher came in and Erin Campbell singled, Reily Boss walked then Erin scored on an overthrow while stealing third and Reily followed by scoring on a passed ball.  After that, she gained control and retired 9 of the next 10 batters.  Meanwhile, Madeline (MJ) Juegens a solid 4 innings allowing only 5 base runners and no runs.  The Cowboys’ defense was also solid with Michaela Fetter, Olivia Munneke and Allison Golden.  Sammy Campbell, Lyndsay Sasson, and Allison each had 2 hits with Allison adding 2 more RBIs to her stats and one of Sammy’s hits was a run-scoring double.  Final score was a 10-4 victory for the Cowboys.

Wyoming hosted Reading on Wednesday, May 6th.  It was also the Cowboy’s senior night honoring our shortstop Olivia Munneke and 2nd baseman, Erin Campbell.  Reading started the game strong, scoring 3 hits in the first inning and another in the top of the third inning.  In the bottom of the third inning, Allison Golden smacked a double, scoring Lyndsay Sasson for her first of 2 RBIs.  Her second would come in the bottom of the fifth with a single to left, scoring Reagan Raymer.  Reading would add another two bringing the score to 6-2 Reading going into the bottom of six.   Sammy Campbell achieved her second hit of the game with a 2RBI double scoring her sister Erin and Reily Boss closing the gap to 6-4.  A defining play for Reading was a hard line drive hit by Sasson which Reading’s shortstop robbed her of the game tying hit, ending the inning.  Unfortunately, Reading broke the game wide open in the top of the 7th by adding 6 more runs.  Final Score:  Reading wins 12-4.

On Thursday, May 7, the Cowboys played at Madeira for the final league game of the season.  Katie Lewis took the mound; pitched all seven innings; did not give up a walk and struck out three.  The Cowboy defense was solid throughout the game, allowing only one unearned run.  After 5 innings, the Cowboys led 9-1.  The offense was consistent as every starter had at least one hit, and they scored in all but the fifth inning.  Madeline “MJ” Juergens and Reagan Raymer each had 3 hits (two of Reagan’s were doubles), and Sammy Campbell also added another double to her resume.  The Cowboys preserved the victory.   Final Score:  Wyoming wins 11-5.
