| | Softball Gets Two Conference Wins; Falls to Roncalli The Lancer girls fastpitch softball team captured two conference wins last week against Cedar Grove-Belgium and Howards Grove but fell in the finish of their rain-delayed game against Roncalli. The Lancers traveled to Cedar Grove and overwhelmed the Rockets 11-3 on Tuesday behind senior Aubry Schleis's pitching. Schleis pitched the complete game, striking out 14 and walking 7, allowing only 2 hits and 3 earned runs. The Lancers' offensive leaders were junior Jenna Lischka, who went 3 for 4 with a triple, a double, a stolen base, and 2 RBIs; junior Hailey Marohn who was 2 for 5 with a triple and a double, 2 stolen bases, and an RBI; and sophomore Madison Luebke who was 2 for 5 with 2 RBIs.  On Wednesday the Lancers traveled back to Roncalli to finish the rain-delayed game from May 2nd. The game started in the bottom of the third inning with the score at 8-5 in favor of Roncalli, and a 2-out, bases-loaded situation for the Jets offense. Pitcher Aubry Schleis had a strong start to the game, getting the third out of the inning with a strikeout. Unfortunately, the Lancers struggled in the field, while Roncalli’s bats were alive, and we lost 14-6. Hailey Marohn had 3 singles, while juniors Sam Siehr and Lischka each hit a double for RBIs. Sophomore Bree Hansen got the Lancer offense going with her hot bat, garnering a single and a double.
Thursday the Lancers took their frustrations out on Howards Grove, soundly defeating the Wolves 24-1 in a game called after a 10-run fifth inning for the Lancers. The Lancer bats started coolly in the first inning, but then heated up, led by Siehr who hit 2 in-the-park homeruns and a single, totaling 8 RBIs. Lischka was a defensive machine with 4 put-outs, 1 assist, and no errors, and she took control in the field, catching pop flies and covering her areas really well, including a diving catch. Schleis pitched a great game, with 6 strikeouts and 2 walks, and only 2 hits. In JV action last week, we lost to Hilbert/Stockbridge on Monday, 18-4, then beat Elkhart Lake-Glenbeulah Tuesday, 9-8, and then fell again to Hilbert/Stockbridge on Thursday by a score of 17-7. The Lancers JV team now has an 1-6-1 record going into their last game of the season, a 4:30pm game against Sheboygan Lutheran Tuesday at the Field of Dreams in Sheboygan. This week the Lancers (4-8, 4-5 Big East) finish their regular season with games Monday and Tuesday against Sheboygan Lutheran and Brillion. The Lancers travel to Sheboygan Lutheran (2-9, 2-7 Big East) TONIGHT for a 4pm first pitch against the Crusaders, and then welcome the Lions (9-8) to Lancer Field Tuesday for a 4:30pm non-conference matchup. Come to Lancer Field Tuesday to cheer on your Lancer Fastpitch Ladies! The Lancers were given a #6 seed in their WIAA Division 4 Region and have a first-round bye in post-season action. They play their first post-season game next Tuesday, May 24th in the second round at Hilbert against #3 seed Stockbridge/Hilbert. |
