Lady ‘Dogs Suffer 9-1 Loss at Weston-Athena

WESTON-ATHENA - A dreary day made for dreary play as the Dayton Bulldogs softball team faced the WestonMcE­wen TigerScots in Athena on Monday afternoon. The Lady 'Dogs walked away from their first full (non-league) game of the season with a 9-1 loss.

"It was a very cold and windy day for softball," said Bulldog Assistant Coach Desirae Jones. "Weston-Athena has a very good program and we made too many errors to stay in the game with them. Their pitching and defense held us to just three hits. Lexus Ward pitched well for us for her first full game in the circle."

Dayton had 1 hit, 3 runs and 7 errors for the game. Weston-Athena had 9 runs, 7 hits and 1 error. Dayton's Lexus Ward pitched the entire game with Taylor Frame catching. Sarah Phillips, Torry Johnson and Taylor Frame got one hit each.
