Softball Recap: Connell Eagles vs. Royal Knights
Connell couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. Their rough 11-0 loss to the Royal Knights on Tuesday might stick with them for a while. The defeat means Connell is still on the hunt for the season's first 'W'.
For Royal's part, Jill Allred was a major factor while hitting and pitching. On the mound, she didn't allow a single earned run and only one hit while striking out seven over five innings pitched. Allred was also stellar in the batter's box, scoring three runs and stealing a base while going 3-for-4.
In other batting news, Lily Delarosa was incredible, going 3-for-3 with five RBI and a run. Audrey Bergeson was another key contributor, going 2-for-4 with a triple, a stolen base, and a run.
The victory made it two in a row for Royal and bumps their season record up to 2-0.
While Connell had to take the loss, they won't have to wait long to give it another shot: the pair will be back at it again later today.
