Coach Tom McClure comments:

”We struggled with playing error-free games against Great Bend and that cost us. We also left all runners on base. We stranded 19 runners in 3 games.

Lizzy Cisneros had a great series going 8 for 12. She also made some good plays while on defense and was probably our most consistent player during the series.

We have to learn to not make costly mistakes or if we have one we make the second one right after it. A couple of our players are going to have to step up soon and be more consistent so we are able to compete and win games.

Lizzy Cisneros 8 for 12, 1 double, 4 RBI’s, and 3 runs.

Milly McClure 4 for 7, 2 HBP, 3 RBI, 2 Runs, 1 triple, 1 pickoff

Logan Dodge 5 for 9,2 doubles, 3 runs
