Solanco's JV softball team completed its slate of crossover gamers with two more lopsided victories. In six games against Section One foes, the Mules outscored opponents by a combined 115-2. Solanco pitchers allowed just 10 hits in those games. Last Wednesday, the Mules mauled McCaskey 22-1 in three innings.
Winning pitcher Kayla May fanned four and allowed two hits and one walk. "On a cool and damp afternoon, Kayla threw a great game," coach Chad McDowell said. "Kayla had good velocity with her pitches and she was able to move her ball through the strike zone well." Kelsey Sheets was 3 for 3 with a triple and three RBIs. Desiree DeHaven went 3 for 4 with three RBIs. Georgia Ewing had two hits including a triple and knocked in three runs. Noelle Schneider had a two-run single in her only at bat. Sierra Dean, Aleksa Burger, and Tori Lawson each notched a single and an RBI and May added a single. On Monday, April 25, Solanco routed Hempfield 15-0 in three innings in a battle of unbeatens. "This is one of those games that our JV program looks forward to play each year. This year was no different," said McDowell. "Our girls were up for this big game and came out and performed like we know they could. We hit the ball well, we made the plays in the field, we ran the bases well, and our pitching was solid. It was a great win for our team and our JV program." The winning pitcher Dean struck out three and gave up one hit and no walks. "She had good command and control and she kept the Hempfield batters off-balance with her movement," McDowell said. May enjoyed a big game at the plate. She belted a grand slam and added a double and single with five RBIs. Kaitlyn Dobinson delivered three hits, including a three-run homer, and finished with four RBIs. Kelsey Sheets was 2 for 2 with two RBIs. Dean had a single and two RBIs. Gabby Sheets tripled and Burger and Skyla Townsley each added a single. Friday's game vs. Ephrata was postponed by rain and was rescheduled for Tuesday, May 3. Comments are closed.
