Softball Sectional and ACAC Baseball/Softball Results

The Lady Railroaders won their final ACAC Softball game tonight defeating Heritage  7-1. Great night for the team. Here are Coach Bishops comments:

Garrett v.s. Heritage we won 7-1. Brit Yarian pitched 7 innings and got the win by walking none, striking out 11  and giving up 7 hits. On offense we had 7 hits and struck with 4 runs in the 3rd inning. Katie DePew singled with one out followed  by an error on Ashley Morriss ground ball. Annessa Smith then doubled in DePew  and Stafford walked. Amber Poling then doubled in Morris and Emily Somers had a sac fly scoring Stafford. We then scored 3 in the 5th  on a lead off single by DePew, again advancing to 3rd on a ground out and wild pitch. She then scored on Annessa Smithes sac fly and then Stafford walked. Amber Poling then hit her first career HOME RUN, a 2 run shot over the left field fence to end the scoring. With the win we finish 5 & 2 in the conference winning the last 5 games and finish in 2nd place. Nice job ladies!!!!! Scott Bishop
Also the IHSAA held the softball draw this afternoon and the Lady Railroaders will take on the tough Lady Warriors of Woodlan in the bye game. The schedule is:

In game #1 Angola will face Bishop Dwenger. Game #2 will have the Lady Lions of Leo face Concordia. The winner of those two games will face each other in game #3 and the Lady Railroaders will take on Woodlan in game #4.  I BELIEVE we will play in the second game of the night on Tuesday at Leo. I will give more details as I get them. The games begin on Monday, May 21st.

Good Luck Lady Railroaders. We will have to play great softball but we can certainly win this tournament!

The Baseball team suffered a tough 1-0 loss tonight to Heritage. Andrew Robinson had another great night on the mound with 9 K's and only 1 walk. However, it was that one walk that scored the only run of the game. Offensively the Railroaders just couldn't get a run across. We left 7 runners on base.  We are banged up and don't have our regular line-up. With that in mind we haven't played poorly, we just havent' taken advantage of our opportunities. We re-group and go to Columbia City on Saturday for a twin bill against the Eagles.

On a side note: Thanks to Carter LaMotte for helping me in the concession tonight. He is a great young man and a very hard worker!
