Softball Sweep

Lisa Golden reported for the Softball team:

The Cowboys had a very good week sweeping the three league games moving into third place in the CHL.  Thursday and Friday’s games were rained out.

Monday versus Madeira saw the Cowboys jump out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first after Reagan Raymer singled, stole second, and scored on Skylar Wolski’s single.  Madeira scored three in the fourth to take a 3-2 lead.  The Cowboys responded with four runs in the fifth and seventh inning for an 11-5 victory.   Reagan finished the game with 7 assists.  Ally Golden and Skylar went 2 for 4 at the plate.  Madeline Juergens pitched an excellent game by not yielding a walk and retiring the last seven batters.

Tuesday we hosted Taylor looking to avenge the 7th inning loss from last week.  Wyoming leads 7-2 entering the 6th inning.  Ally Golden made 5 plays at short.  Riley Boss scored three runs and Skylar had two hits and a walk in the first five innings.  The Taylor bats then woke up in the final two at bats and tied the score.  Emma Jacquemin scored the winning run when Michaela Fetter singled up the middle with 2 outs for the 8-7 victory.

Wednesday, Madeira visited Wyoming.  Reily Boss went 3 for 4 at the plate followed by strong performances by Skylar, Madeline Juergens and Sammie Campbell.  Sammie’s pair of doubles and Skylar’s double, contributed for half the runs scored by Wyoming.    Backing up MJ’s pitching performance were a strong infield highlighted by spectacular plays by Michaela Fetter who caught 3 line drives to second, several running catches by outfielders Sammie Campbell, Reily Boss and Shelby Fritz. In the end, the Cowboys defense was just too strong for Madeira.  The final score was a win for the Cowboys at 8-3.

This week the Cowboys face Finneytown and a currently undefeated Reading team.  We hope to see you there to cheer us on!
