Softball Recap: St. Patrick Takes a Loss

Friday just wasn't the day for St. Patrick's offense. They took a 5-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Baker Hornets on Friday. The game marked the first time this year in which the Fighting Irish were not able to get on the board.

St. Patrick saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Tara Nasakaitis, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases. That's the most stolen bases Nasakaitis has posted since back in May of 2024.

St. Patrick has been struggling recently as they've lost four of their last five matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 3-5 record this season. The win made it two in a row for Baker and bumps their season record up to 10-4.

Coming up, St. Patrick will venture away from home to take on Poplarville at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday. Poplarville's pitching crew has only allowed three runs per game this season, so St. Patrick's hitters will have their work cut out for them. We've got a battle between Hornets coming up. East Central is strutting in with some hitting muscle as they've averaged 9.2 runs per game this season.
