Softball Recap: Murdock Comes Up Short

Murdock was not able to break out of their rough patch on Wednesday as the team picked up their sixth straight loss dating back to last season. They lost 14-3 to the Maynard Tigers. If the Blue Devils were looking for revenge after losing 10-2 to the Tigers when the teams met back in May of 2024, then they'll just have to keep looking.

Murdock got a big performance out of Lilyana Lee, who went 1-for-2 with one stolen base, two RBI, and one double. That double marked the first that Lee hit this season. Kenndra Lamb was another key player, scoring a run and stealing two bases while getting on base in two of her four plate appearances.

Murdock's defeat dropped their record down to 0-5. As for Maynard, the victory (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 4-1.

Coming up, Murdock will host Tahanto Regional at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Maynard, they are taking a road trip to challenge Gardner at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. The Wildcats have struggled to contain batters this season (they've allowed 6.86 runs per game on average), something the Tigers will no doubt try to take advantage of.
