Oakwood pitcher Katie Lee throws a shutout and was the stand out for her team in round one of the Class 1A Salt Fork Regional.
Lee had her career high in strike outs with 10 allowing only two hits and two walks as Oakwood defeated Shiloh/Chrisman 8-0. At the plate Lee had four hits.
“Katie pitched an excellent game,” Oakwood coach Rick Bough said. “She also had four hits and was very patient at the plate. We weren’t used to seeing a pitcher like Lock so the girls had to adjust. Katie did a nice job of making adjustments.”
In the fifth inning the Comets secured their victory by putting up four runs. Kayla Watson reached on an error, Lee hit a single, Amanda Wahlfeldt singled, Chelsi Haga walked and loaded up the bases, Minda Pichon had a hit and Sam Baer had a two out hit.
Baer was the other player for the Comets with multiple hits with two hits and two RBIs.
Unity 3

WESTVILLE — The Tigers end their season 9-18 overall and 6-11 in the Vermilion Valley Conference after a loss against Unity in game one of the St. Joseph-Ogden Regional.
The game was tied at two until the top of the seventh where the Rockets strung together some hits to take the lead and the win.
“It was a well pitched game. We (Taylor Ceader) didn’t give up a hit until the fifth inning,” Westville coach Shawn Skinner said. “It was well played by both teams; how regional games should be played.”
Heather DePratt was the only Tiger with multiple hits including a double and a triple.
St. Joseph-Ogden will host Unity today at 4:30 p.m. in game two of the Class 2A Regional.
Iroquois West 6
Milford 0
GILMAN — The Milford Bearcats had four hits in the 6-0 loss against Iroquois West in the IHSA Class 1A Colfax Ridgeview Regional.
“We popped up a lot tonight,” Milford coach Sasha Mays said. “Their pitcher was hittable but our intensity was not as high today. If we could have carried our intensity on from Friday’s game we would have been okay.”
Ashley McKay, Layn Newman, Whitney Waterman and Julie Estay all had a single in the game, however their hits were spread out and the Bearcats weren’t able to capitalize.
“We have a young group. This experience will help us for next year,” Mays said.
