WEIMAR — Lady cats softball had a dominant bout and smashed Cameron Yoe High School by a final score of 10-6 March 1 at Wildcats Field after three innings and the time expiration rule as this game was in tournament play. A huge second and third inning for Weimar put them ahead and it was too late for Cameron Yoe to make any kind of comeback as time expired for the next game to be played in a tournament hosted by Weimar.
“We needed that,” said Weimar head softball coach Roger Maupin on the two big innings.
“They had some hits that just kind of went to the gaps and that’s gonna happen. Then we made a couple boo boos and gave them the lead. That’s what we’ve been looking for out of this group. We’ve been giving up big innings, we just haven’t had the big innings. It’s always good to see us come back with a big inning behind that. This is growth.
We’re looking for growth.”
Weimar senior Hannah Fis beck blasted a two-run home run over the left field wall in the bottom of the third inning for the final runs of the game. "The first time I fouled it off to my coach and almost hit him with a hard line shot," Fisbeck said. "He said make sure to send it to right field and that was my goal. She was a slower pitcher than the one before. Right off the bat, as soon as I hit it, I knew it was gone just by the launch angle it had on it. It felt amazing for our team to capture the lead.”
Cameron Yoe scored six runs to start the game, then Weimar had a ginormous second inning with seven runs scored on four walks and five base hits with one of them coming from Fisbeck.
Cameron Yoe drew a walk and knocked a base hit in the next inning, but still went scoreless to send Weimar back to the dish. The Lady Wildcats put on another big inning with a few walks, a couple stolen bases, and Fis beck’s two-run bomb to win the game 10-6 after time expired in regards to a tournament play rule.
