The Lady 'Stangs of Bishop Brossart traveled to Richmond, Kentucky on Tuesday evening to take on one of the 11th Region's top teams Madison Central and came away with a solid well played 7-6 win. The Lady 'Stangs improve to 10-3 while Madison Central falls to 9-5.

 

Both teams scored in the first inning and then Brossart took a brief 2-1 lead after two before Central put together a nice 4 run inning in the third sending 8 hitters to the plate for a 5-2 advantage, but back came BBHS with a run in the fourth to cut it to 5-3 and then took the lead at 6-5 in the fifth inning with a three run outburst.

 

In the seventh inning, with the bases loaded, catcher Erica Riedeman stole home on an attempted pick off of Molly Williams at first and suddenly Brossart was up 7-5. A tough Madison Central team though would not go away.

 

In the bottom of the seventh they scored a run and loaded the bases with two outs bringing Winkler to the plate. She had reached three times in the game as the team's leadoff hitter and had tripled in her previous at bat. She turned on an inside pitch and sent a shot to right that first baseman Maria Greis snagged for the final out to preserve the Lady 'Stang win.

 

Pitcher Karlie Shackelford spread 8 hits over seven innings and allowed only 2 earned runs. Erica Riedeman scored three times including the game winner. Riedeman, Greis and Tricia Kramer all had two hits to pace Brossart.

 

In the junior varsity game, despite a long triple by Katelyn Seiter, Brossart fell 3-1 in a shortened game.

Serious question, is Brossart having that much trouble on defensive. Seems like every game they are giving up several unearned runs.

I completely agree.

 

This could be the first two earned runs they have given up all year. :lol:

I know when we played them at softball city, the score was 7 to 3 and the 3 runs we scored were a bunch of errors on Brossart. I cant speak for other games.

Oh! I forgot.

 

Actually, when we played Brossart (Bracken I mean), Brossart's fielding was alright...there weren't many errors at all that I recall.
