Lady TIgers Sweep Columbia

PRESCOTT – The WP softball team hosted Columbia (Burbank) on April 21 and came away with their first two wins of the season, 13-3 and 3-0.

In game 1, the Lady Tigers took advantage of Coyote pitching control problems to score 13 runs on only six hits. Analise Salazar had three hits for WP. The Tigers scored ten runs in the fourth through sixth innings, to build a ten run lead and end the game early.

In game 2, pitcher Jaidyn Brown shut out the Coyotes, giving up only two hits. The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the fifth inning, when WP got on the board for its first of three runs. Paige Wood and DeJa Williams had the Lady Tigers’ only hits, but they were enough.

“The girls played really well against Columbia-Burbank and were able to gain some confidence in their ability to win games,” said WP Coach Angie Potts.
