It was a pitchers duel this evening, Elise Edwards against Fairfield’s S. Shank. Both pitchers held the offense scoreless until the bottom of the 6th inning. N Garber hit a single with 2 outs to right field. M Statesman came in to run for Garber, and stole second. Then got to 3rd on a wild pitch, then scored on a wild pitch. Elise Edwards struck out 9 batters, allowing just 2 hits, and 3 walks. The Lakers tallied 7 hits on the evening, but struggled to push a run across the plate. Freshman Keirstin Roose led the way for the Lakers going 2 for 3. Edwards, Kendall Moore, Hannah Harris, Grace Arend, and Kylee Palmer each added hits for the Lakers. The Lady Lakers had 2 runners on base in the top of the 7th inning, in place to tie the game, and were unable to produce a run. The Lady Lakers will be back in action on Saturday for a double header, against non-conference opponent East Noble.
