Seward Softball Suffers Worst Loss in Split

After a loss which Andrea Gustafson called the worst loss in school history, Seward bounced back and won game two. It was certainly a weird Wednesday of softball at Lady Saints Field as Colby hit two home runs in game one and run ruled Seward 10-0. Seward won the second game 17-0.

In game one, Colby out-hit Seward 13-2. The Trojans scored five in the second, one in the fourth, and four in the fifth.

Game two couldn’t have been a bigger 180 degree turn. Seward scored nine in the first and five in the second to blow the game open early. The Saints had six doubles in the win. Samantha Phelps drove home five runs and Michelle Duford drove home three runs. Marissa Chavez and Stephanie Mark drove home two runs a piece. Brittany Hopkins pitched all five innings allowing just one run.

Seward is 21-15 overall and 4-4 in the Jayhawk West while Colby is 8-12 overall and 3-5 in the Jayhawk West.

Seward plays a double header in La Junta against Otero Friday at 1 p.m.
