Lady Bulldogs Overwhelm WWVA

Dayton outscores Jaguars 43-1 in Friday double-header

 


COLLEGE PLACE – The Walla Walla Valley Academy softball team was no match for Dayton Friday afternoon, as the Lady ‘Dogs won two mercy rule-shortened games, 33-1 and 10-0.

In game one, Dayton had 23 hits and took advantage of nine WWVA errors, in a game that was called after three innings. Tatum Laughery led her team with five hits. Heidi Dobbs had four hits, and Kellie Moore and Megan Robins each had three. Moore and Robins each had six RBIs.

Game 2 lasted five innings, again shortened by the mercy rule, with Dayton having a 10-run lead. Dayton had a total of eight hits.

Between the three Dayton pitchers over two games – Savannah McFarland and Madison Mings in game one, and Megan Robins in game two – the Lady Bulldogs did not allow a hit.

“WWVA is a young and inexperienced team but play with a lot of heart,” said Dayton assistant coach Desirae Jones. “The Knights came out much improved in game two and had some great plays on defense.”

Dayton was to travel to Asotin on Tuesday. After Friday’s games, the Lady Bulldogs were 7-4 overall and 5-1 in league play.
