The day didn't start out that great for the Lady Railroaders losing in the first game to Bishop Dwenger, 6-0. It became obvious that this was the day for the Lady Saints. They defeated Manchester in game 2 and won the Championship game (14-3) in 5 innings against Elkhart Memorial. The Lady Railroaders bounced back and defeated Manchester 6-1 in the consolation game. Here are Coach Bishop's comments:
"Garrett v.s. B Dwenger. We made 2 errors in 1st inning allowing 2 runs, they had 1 run in 3rd, 5th and 2 more in 6th, on 2 more errors for a total 0f 6 runs. We struck out 12 times and really never threathened the whole game . We were over matched by their pitcher. We had 3 hits total and that will simply not get the job done!. Rachel Stafford who has been swinging a hot bat, had one hit. Macy Sturges had a bunt single and Emily Somers had the other hit. Sturges started and went the distance giving up 8 hits 6 runs ONLY 2 earned. She walked 2 and struck out 4. Not being ready to play the 1st inning remains a problem for us. final Bishop Dwenger 6 - Garrett 0."
"Garrett vs. Manchester. Manchester was without their head coach after getting tossed in the 1st game and we scored 2 times in the first on a walk and 2 sacrifice flies. Then Rachel Stafford connected for her 3rd HOME RUN of the season over the left field fence, nice job Rachel!!! We scored 2 more in the 2nd on a Brit Yarian single followed by a bunt single by Hannah McCoy. Then a 1 run single by Ashley Morris and Anessa Smith grounded to short scoring McCoy. We scored 2 in the 6th when Emily Somers started with a single and sac bunt by Sturges. McCoy then drove in Somers and McCoy scored on an error. We played errorless ball and didn't strike out. We MUST do this against our sectional opponents if we are to succeed in sectionals. Brit Yarian went the distance striking out 10 walking none and giving up 7 hits. Our pitching at this point is not the problem, but self confidence and execution remains a large part of our play. We are currently 11 wins and 9 losses for the season and will conclude conference play next week with Southern Wells here on Tuesday and Heritage here on Thursday both at 6pm starts."
Good Luck Lady Railroaders!
